Why Italian products?
As you know, Italy is the homeland of culture, good living, and style. Because of superior quality, design, and craftsmanship, Italian fashion products are sought-after, extremely appreciated, and well-sold everywhere.
Such products are different from anything else you can find on the market, and they lead the way for style and quality. Because of these reasons, they are also the most counterfeited merchandise on the market.
Authentic Italian-made products are exclusive, and targeted at style- and quality-conscious buyers. On the contrary, merchandise from the most popular designer brands is far from "exclusive." Everyone can find it everywhere (and most often, you find knock-offs, not the real thing!), making such products globally and easily available to everybody.
Many less popular Italian brands and companies offer much higher quality products in a huge variety of terrific styles and models. They are exclusive because they are manufactured and sold in low quantities.
Consumers want quality fashion products that others cannot find. You can help them find something extraordinary because you can source directly from selected Italian fashion companies that your competitors usually need help to reach!
These "made in Italy" fashion products are not mass-produced and do not originate from a child, underpaid labor, or environment-deadly manufacturing. Such an ethical attitude comes at a price, but a reasonable price when you consider the style, the quality, and the socially-correct origin of the Italian products. If you are looking for - say - handbags or shoes priced at a few US dollars, the ItalianModa B2B marketplace cannot help your business.

If you are looking for cheap fashion products available for a few US dollars (or just very few tens in case of high-quality footwear, handbags, and suits), ItalianModa and the Italian fashion companies cannot help you.
- If low-priced or cheap products are offered to you as of Italian origin, beware! Unless they are (old) closeouts, they are most likely counterfeits or items produced elsewhere.
- There is no way to have genuine Italian fashion products as cheap as those manufactured in other countries because of different labor conditions, regulations, and investments in quality and style.
- Beware of the so-called "Italian sounding"! Products manufactured elsewhere are often labeled with Italian names, flags, or monuments.
- If a "Made in Italy" label is attached to the product, but it comes at a low or very cheap price, it is either a counterfeit or has been possibly made somewhere in Italy by foreigners exploiting illegal and illegal and underpaid workers.
- Purchasing counterfeits or improbable "Italian" products helps criminality, the illegal market, and unfair competition based upon the exploitation of the workforce and no-rules business. More, it diverts precious resources from new investments in real Italian fashion style and quality. This could be the end of Italian fashion as you know it.
- Such low-priced products are made from poor and unsafe materials and often use critical manufacturing processes. All of this can seriously jeopardize your customers' health and bring legal actions against you.
