🎉 Happy Birthday Cav. Ernesto Gazzola!
Today we celebrate the 93rd birthday of our founder, Cav. Ernesto Gazzola.
A life devoted to hard work, family and love for his homeland. From a very young age, Ernesto showed extraordinary determination: at just 13, he began working as an apprentice, learning the art of shoemaking with curiosity and dedication. In 1962, with a clear vision and strong roots, he founded Gaerne, transforming a small workshop in Veneto into a World-renowned brand celebrated for its excellence, quality and pioneering spirit.
Today together with his children and the third generation, he continues to be a constant and inspiring presence, with the same passion as always.
His words remind us of the values at the heart of every success:
"Believe in your dreams and work with passion and integrity. Nothing happens by chance: it takes perseverance, sacrifice, respect for people and love for what you do."
Thank you, Cavaliere, for paving the way and for being an inspiration to all of us every single day.
