Values

ZANACCO is built around the two main assertions of being a “Truly made in Italy” product and also a “Sustainable Luxury” brand.

Jasmine Zanacco always believed that bringing together luxury and sustainability was a real possibility. Although surrounded by skepticism she worked incredibly hard to prove it is possible to combine the most skilled artisans and the newest technology to deliver luxury products which are as beautiful as they are respectful of the environment and the community around which they are manufactured.

On one hand, over the years, the relevance of “Made In” has been scrutinized and at times devalued.  On the other hand, the relevance of “Sustainability”, in the luxury sector and beyond, has gathered momentum and won recognitions across the whole industry.

ZANACCO products are all made using vegetable tanned leathers, water based glue, bio-degradable oils, coco-fiber insole, nickel free metals, wooden nails. We use recycled paper for our packaging and ensure that every material is meticulously checked and approved before use.

In Jasmine’s views, in order to achieve the company’s goals of delivering outstanding products, products that can bridge artisanship, sophistication and sustainability, it is imperative to maintain all aspects of the sourcing and manufacturing process in Italy.

This is the reasons why “Made In” has a fundamental  value in our organization. “Truly Made in Italy” is not simply embossed on our shoes or printed on our company logo, it is embodied in our company culture, is a constant reminder of the why we do things the way we do it.

It was with this approach that ZANACCO researched and selected all of its suppliers in Italy, found is prime leather manufacturer in San Miniato, a Tuscan village situated between Florence and Pisa, and located its manufacturing base in Vigevano.
