Sales Associate & Keyholder

Confezioni Peserico was created in 1962 by Maria Peserico in Cornedo Vicentino, nearby Vicenza in the heart of Veneto, as a small manufacturer specialized in women’s pants.

In the early 90’s the collections grew to cover a total look, and the label PESERICO was finally added to our products made exclusively in Italy.

Today, the company creates, produces and distributes three different collections: Woman, Man, Aurea.
