The Roncato family business was founded in the 1940s. Right after World War II ended, people dreamed of a better life overseas. Antonio Roncato, who had previously worked as a production supervisor in a luggage factory, used his ideas and knowledge to create durable bags for Italian emigrants, supporting them on their life journeys. Journey, dreams, passion, and courage were the key values of the original project and continue to drive the Roncato family. In the 1970s, Antonio's son, Giovanni Roncato, founded Valigeria Roncato. He had the insight to create Italy's first large-scale assembly line for luggage products, which allowed him to transform the company into an industry leader. Meanwhile, the third generation leads the family business, continuing to pursue Antonio's dreams and products, accompanying millions of travelers on their journeys.
Roncato represents premium "Made in Italy" luggage products worldwide. Giovanni continuously innovated production processes and products, manufacturing the first top-tier Italian luggage products.In the late 1980s, the "Sphera" series, made of polypropylene, was launched. Thanks to the "spherical" shape on the sides, these suitcases were highly practical, easy to handle, and innovative.In the 1990s, Roncato became the leader in polypropylene suitcase production in Italy. Over the years, Roncato has become a global icon of "Made in Italy" luggage, with its Italian trolleys considered the lightest and most durable in the world. Today, Roncato operates in over 100 countries across five continents. It is available in flagship stores, multi-brand stores, and department stores.
