What Giglio.com does

Giglio.com S.p.A. is an Italian publicly-traded online luxury fashion marketplace that sells clothing, bags, shoes, and accessories from over 700 fashion and luxury brands—including Gucci, Bottega Veneta, Fendi, Valentino, Burberry, Salvatore Ferragamo, Balenciaga, Saint Laurent, and Balmain—to consumers in more than 150 countries. Founded as a local boutique in Sicily by Michele Giglio around 1970 and incorporated in 1996, the company lists on the Milan Stock Exchange (since 2021) and is a member of the National Chamber of Italian Fashion. Headquartered in Palermo with 101–250 employees, the platform supports nine language versions and multi-currency checkout, with free shipping and customs duties included for orders above $341.52.

The business operates a direct-to-consumer e-commerce platform complemented by an omnichannel 'Community Shopping' service that integrates approximately 200 partner brick-and-mortar boutiques across Italy, France, and Spain. The technology stack is a transactional marketplace augmented by AI tools used to reduce content production costs (product photography and marketing material generation). The company monetizes primarily through transaction-based product sales, with a Beauty Seekers VIP Club loyalty program, an Affiliate Program, and a GIGLIO Token digital asset supporting the ecosystem. Partnerships extend the catalog: a collaboration with Vestiaire Collective adds pre-owned luxury items under the 'GIGLIO.COM x Vestiaire Collective' label.

FY2025 sales totaled €39.5M, a 14% decline from €46.2M in 2024, with a net loss of €2.47M and an adjusted EBITDA loss of €1.6M. European markets generated 73.2% of 2025 sales, and management is concentrating investment on this region while de-emphasizing the US and rest-of-world. Founder Michele Giglio died in April 2026 at age 86, marking a significant leadership transition during a period of revenue contraction.
