The current company GIAV SRL is the evolution of different companies of the GIAQUINTO family whose first anecdotes date back to the decade 1960-1970, a period in which the self-made man Vincenzo Giaquinto, a concrete and farsighted man, proudly stands out for being the first creator of stuffed toys in Italy, a field in which he specializes in depth and gradually acquires mastery and tireless ability.
After having located the Operational Headquarters in Ottaviano, a locality in the immediate vicinity of Vesuvius and above all circumscribed in the industrial heart of the Campania capital, the manager believed in his intentions with so much sacrifice until to extend the strategic plan incrementally up to the 80s, becoming skilled as a wholesaler and professional in the sale of toys.
In the time span that moves from 1980 to 1985, he dedicates himself to the importation of some game elements for children from China to facilitate wholesale distribution.
With full awareness of the adventure undertaken, the road often appears full of pitfalls, obstacles to face and difficulties, but each of them actually represents a propulsive stimulus to act and never slow down.
In 2005, the Administrative Headquarters was moved definitively to San Gennaro Vesuvio (NA), a company space of 5,000m2 including the Departments of Research, Design & Showroom, to which the branch in Capua (CE) is added shortly, an area of a further 5,000m2 corresponding instead to Logistica & Production.
In 2010 the feedback from the market was extremely positive, so as to induce the Founder to restart the production in Italy of plastic toys and similar.
The approvals of the customers reached more than satisfactory levels, hand in hand with those associated with obstinacy and boundless passion for one’s work: in just a few years, GIAQUINTO GIOCATTOLI effectively became a case history solid, promising and brilliant, very active in the toys sector and recognizable among the players for its differential qualities of competitiveness, monitoring of always guaranteed high quality, thoughtful creativity suitable for children.
Over the course of time, primary factories in the toy universe belonging to popular national brands were acquired, taking care to reserve commitment to fervent technological genius, pure craftsmanship inspired by the past , uniqueness of the thousands of references present in the portfolio and desirable attractiveness of the buyers.
Today the mission is unmistakable: push on the accelerator with grit and an expansionist vocation,
so that you experiment with excitement and you can transparently communicate ideas, initiatives and tomorrow’s activities!
