The history of the Roncato family begins in the 40s, immediately after the Second World War, when Antonio Roncato and his wife Palmira began, among many difficulties, to make bags and suitcases for the Italian emigrants who at that time were embarking on the journey of their life.

A journey based on the hope of arriving in a better place than the one they had left, the “promised land” of the nineteenth century, the dream. Antonio Roncato, who worked during the war as a production manager in a suitcase company, was able to learn the trade firsthand even risking his life due to the bombings that destroyed bridges and road links. So, after hiding for a few months to escape the dangers of war, the young Antonio decided to found, together with his wife, the family business, producing the only items he knew how to do very well, bags and suitcases.
