Founded in 1969, Rossini Group has become a benchmark in the workwear and personal protective equipment (PPE) sector, designing and manufacturing products that guarantee safety, comfort and a perfect fit. With a consolidated turnover of just under €70 million, the Group continues to invest in innovation, service quality and operational efficiency to support its growth ambitions across Europe.

To support this consolidation strategy and rising volumes, Rossini Group has significantly upgraded its logistics operations. In 2024, the Group inaugurated a new AutoStore automated warehouse at its logistics hub in Seriate (Bergamo), complementing its existing facility, and has now decided to implement Slimstock’s supply chain planning solution.

 

Navigating a competitive and complex market

Operating in a highly competitive, dynamic, and increasingly fragmented workwear and PPE market, Rossini Group faces continuous pressure to innovate both technically and aesthetically. At the same time, maintaining high standards of efficiency, speed and accuracy in order fulfilment, while optimising stock levels to avoid overstocking and stockouts, remains a critical challenge.

“Today, service is a key strategic factor: in a context where customers have a wide choice, service quality becomes a determining factor in building lasting relationships of trust and strengthening brand recognition,” says Alberto Pedroni, Rossini Managing Director.

 

Strengthening planning and inventory management

To address these challenges, Rossini Group launched a structured investment plan in 2024 to achieve operational excellence and enhance the overall customer experience. A central element of this strategy is the digitisation and optimisation of planning and inventory management processes, designed to better align product availability with market demand.

By strengthening forecasting capabilities, improving exception management, and adopting a more strategic approach to inventory management, Rossini Group aims to reduce costs, free up working capital currently tied up in excess stock, and ensure greater continuity in product availability.

“We expect to be more responsive to market changes, thanks to a proactive planning engine capable of anticipating shifts in demand. This is not simply a technological investment, but a strategic choice aimed at strengthening the company’s ability to anticipate market needs, make more informed decisions and act more quickly,” highlights Alberto Pedroni, Rossini Managing Director.

 

Finding the perfect match

Following a thorough market analysis, Slimstock emerged as the clear choice thanks to its strong specialisation in inventory planning and its value-oriented consulting approach, supported by solid experience and numerous successful business cases.

“The ability to integrate specialist expertise and advanced technology into a user-friendly solution, capable of responding promptly to our operational needs and with short implementation times, made Slimstock the ideal partner to accompany us on this growth path.”

 

A strategic step towards data-driven growth

Looking ahead to 2026, Rossini Group plans to consolidate its distribution network further. More structured, data-driven planning will be a key enabler on this journey, helping the supply chain become more responsive, flexible and resilient in an evolving market environment.

“This collaboration is part of a broader vision of continuous improvement and process innovation. The project goes beyond the adoption of a technological solution and represents a strategic step towards more structured and data-driven planning, capable of providing concrete support for business growth and accompanying its evolution over time,” concludes Alberto Pedroni, Rossini Managing Director.
