Mr. Cassani: Founded in 1974 as a small “garage company”, Marchesini Group has grown over the years to become a leading fabricator of packaging systems for the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. Looking at the beginning, what has been the secret behind this success story?

Pietro Cassani: Passion for one’s work and attention to detail; respect for people and the territory; and curiosity to explore the world and open up to distant markets and cultures. Add to that a pinch of courage and foresight that has allowed the Group to look to the future, focusing on new technologies and sometimes even implementing unconventional solutions that our customers appreciate.
