THE Prada Group have officially announced that they will providing support to the Italian health services, which have been massively affected by the outbreak of Covid-19 in Italy over the past few weeks. Since last week, the company’s factory, based in Montone in the Italian Province of Perugia, has stayed opened and started the production of 80,000 medical overalls and 110,000 masks, to be allocated to medical teams across the country. The production plan provides for daily deliveries of the necessary personal protective equipment and is set to be completed by early April.
With the ongoing support of factory workers and a network of external Italian suppliers, the company initiates a true act of solidarity during these unsettling times.
