Prada Group announces a major plan to recruit over 400 people by the end of 2023, to strengthen its production capacity and craftsmanship expertise in Italy. The investment plan, designed to develop the Group’s facilities and its commitment to foster the craftsmanship and skills of its people, will support the growth trajectory highlighted by Prada Group’s latest results. It will guarantee greater agility and a reduction of time-to-market. The Group already carries out all quality checks on raw materials and finished products as well as manages all logistics internally.
Massimo Vian, Industrial Director of Prada S.p.A., said: “Prada Group continues to invest in its supply chain, consistent with what was announced during our Capital Markets Day at the end of 2021. We have an ongoing commitment to strengthen the industrial backbone of the Group, while being respectful of our long-time suppliers. Today, we are proud to announce more than 400 new jobs which will support the Group’s growth in the coming years. The Prada Group Academy will become increasingly crucial for the future preservation of our know-how and the one of the sector. We feel a responsibility to invest in young talent who will become the next generation of expert craftspeople”.
Prada Group Academy will train more than 200 new professionals over the next year by the Group’s maestros, across leather goods, footwear and ready-to-wear.
