Anderson's

Mr Carlo Valenti, the founder of Anderson's, was born in 1935. As a young man in 1960, he started learning the art of belt making at a famous leather factory in Parma. Here he found everything there is to know about leather, so after 6 years he took that knowledge and decided to start his own business. Together with a few colleagues and his future wife, he started the Anderson's company in 1966. Being an Anglophile, he was very fond of hats and wore suits by English tailor 'Anderson and Sheppard'… that's how the name 'Anderson's' came to life. Anderson's is now one of the leading accessories companies in Italy and maybe the oldest men's belt manufacturer in Europe.
