Today is a big day for our Italian colleagues, it’s Ferragosto!

Always celebrated on August 15^th, Ferragosto is a national public holiday in Italy. Our Italian friends typically celebrate for the full month and often spend it on holiday. Buon Ferragosto indeed!

Ever run into lead time issues or longer communication lags from your Italy-based factory and vendor partners during August? Or hear about the “August shutdowns”? That’s because they’re celebrating Ferragosto!

Though we love the Italian concept of the month-long holiday, and La Bella Vita, we also know it may impact your material lead times for sampling or project-specific orders. Many of our US-based producers use Italian-inspired aesthetics and color palettes you’d find in the Sassuolo district.
