The Italian brand Roberto Cavalli, specialized in the luxury fashion and accessories sector, wants to close its headquarters in Tuscany, more precisely in Sesto Fiorentino and centralize its activities in Milan.
The company met informally by teleconference with the provincial unions in Florence to present its new strategic plans.
As a result of this meeting, the unions announced the brand’s intention to transfer “all the staff, 170 employees, to Milan within the next few months“.
In fact, Roberto Cavalli presented the guidelines of his new organisation, which includes the regrouping of commercial and administrative functions at the Milan headquarters.
This would entail the closure of the Italian company’s founding headquarters in Sesto Fiorentino (north of Florence) and the transfer of all 170 employees.
This is “an unacceptable choice for a brand, which was instead to re-launch itself from Florence“, explain the unions.
The Italian company said that this decision will only be implemented once the epidemiological emergency is over, the aim being to take advantage of this period to find common solutions.
“No transfer procedure has been formally taken, nor any redundancy procedure. A meeting between the Tuscany Region and the trade unions is to be held shortly to find solutions,” the brand says.
