Bassi & Bellotti has celebrated its 70th anniversary at its Rivoli Veronese Atelier. Founded in 1956, the company began with Italian marble and granite and now operates production and commercial locations in Lombardy, Veneto and Tuscany.

Focus Piedra reports that the Mariano Comense plant covers 60,000 m² and concentrates much of slab production; company figures say about 90% of blocks are exported. The Atelier opened in 2018 provides 5,000 m² for display and storage.

Editorial context

The anniversary provides a view of industrial continuity and geographic presence. Areas, export shares and other figures are company statements and should be read as a business profile, not an independent market comparison.
