FERRARI S.P.A.

What FERRARI S.P.A. does

Ferrari S.p.A. is an Italian, family-owned manufacturer of funeral coffins and related funeral accessories, founded in 1925 by Francesco Ferrari, a carpenter from the lower Lake Garda area, and now in its fourth generation of family ownership. The company operates from a single production facility in Ponti sul Mincio (Province of Mantua), established in the mid-1960s, with its registered office in Peschiera del Garda (Province of Verona). Ferrari manufactures entirely in Italy using traditional carpentry combined with modern woodworking systems, water-based paints, and waste-minimization practices.

Its core product is a customizable coffin catalog spanning over 150 models organized into four branded product lines — Anima (simplicity and pureness), Feeling (classic shapes), Emozioni (elegant and avant-garde), and Meraviglioso (premium craftsmanship) — across more than ten wood essences (Fir, Ash, Exotic, Larch, Mahogany, Oak, Walnut, Yellowpine, Cherry, Ayous, Italian Walnut, Ebony, Exotic Terra, Ekop) and multiple tints, finishes, sizes, and accessories. A dedicated Ecological Coffins (Mod. Ecologica) line addresses environmentally conscious buyers through eco-compatible production methods.

The business model is straightforward B2B hardware sales: funeral homes, funeral enterprises, and funeral directors purchase coffins on a quote-based, one-off transaction basis. Ferrari reaches customers through 11 commissioned regional sales agents covering all major Italian territories, supplemented by a multilingual website (Italian, English, German) with a catalog and wishlist feature that funnels online interest back to the sales team for order finalization and scheduled direct-to-warehouse delivery.
