The company is a wholly-owned subsidiary (Socio Unico) of Fiera Milano S.p.A., Italy's largest exhibition venue operator, which exercises direction and coordination (direzione e coordinamento) over Nolostand.

The go-to-market is direct, primarily via the company website and inbound email at [email protected], with no formal sales channel beyond direct engagement with exhibition organizers, corporations, and event planners.

There is no proprietary software or technology platform; the offering is fundamentally a physical logistics, design, and construction service. The company maintains five ISO certifications (ISO 9001 Quality, ISO 14001 Environmental Management, ISO 20121 Sustainable Event Management, ISO 45001 Occupational Health and Safety, and UNI/Pdr 125 Gender Equality), a Code of Business Ethics, a Whistleblowing procedure, and an Organisation, Management and Control Model pursuant to Italian Legislative Decree 231/2001.
