A strategic partnership aimed at strengthening both sides: for Patrizio Bertelli’s group, a move to reinforce its production process; for the Trissino-based holding company (Vicenza), an opportunity to deepen its investments in the luxury sector. Prada Group is set to acquire a stake in Rino Mastrotto Group through a deal expected to close “between the end of the second and the beginning of the third quarter of 2025.”
Prada acquires stake in Rino Mastrotto Group
According to both parties, the binding agreement just signed includes “the contribution by Prada Group to Rino Mastrotto Group of 100% of Conceria Superior (following the purchase of the remaining shares not yet owned) and Tannerie Limoges.” But that’s not all. “Prada Group also commits to a cash investment in exchange for a minority stake equal to 10% of Rino Mastrotto Group’s share capital.”
The operation marks a consolidation of the relationship between the two groups, with a view toward “long-term strategic development.”

“This deal demonstrates our company’s determination to continue investing in the luxury segment,” said Matteo Mastrotto, CEO of Rino Mastrotto Group. “Prada’s entry into our share capital validates our long-standing collaboration and mutual respect, while bringing a broader industrial vision focused on long-term growth.”
“With this entry into Rino Mastrotto, we strengthen our control over a highly strategic phase of the production process,” added Patrizio Bertelli, Chairman and CEO of Prada. “Our groups share a passion for quality, innovation, and sustainability, and we are pleased to foster synergies and consolidation efforts to reinforce the supply chain and the Made in Italy excellence.”
