I can undoubtedly say that Retail is my world. I have been married to it for more than 20 years. I love the environment, speed, constant change and evolution, and the passion that characterizes all the people who are part of it. I was fortunate to work for Inditex for 12 wonderful years and for sure this is the most relevant experience in my career. I have covered all positions from Store manager to Europe commercial director. In 2017 I was hired as General Manager at Percassi Group, to manage the partnership with LBrands (Victoria’s Secret and Bath&BodyWorks) in Italy, Spain and France. Since 2019 I have held the same role but for the other European partner of Victoria’s Secret, Amarla Retail S.A. with responsibility for brand development in Scandinavia, Benelux, Greece, Austria and Switzerland. At the end of 2021 I had the opportunity to become part of the wonderful world of Apple, a company whose values I fully share, especially the maniacal care for the customer, the external customer and especially the internal one, the Employee. After a few months at Apple I was contacted by Klepierre Italia, a leading company in the shopping center sector, to cover the position of Head of Operations Italy. The idea of looking at the retail world from the opposite side convinced me to accept the challenge, and a passionate team with thirty years of experience in the sector has contributed to achieving extraordinary results for the company. During the last year I’ve been living between Spain and Italy, that's why I decided to support as a consultant other retail companies in Europe to grow and be successful. And after this experience I decided to build my retail consulting company.
