Benetton is a globally known fashion brand based in Italy. It was founded in 1965 by Luciano Benetton and other family members.

It now has 6,000 stores around the world and produces 150,000 items of clothing. Its website says it is “a group with a strong Italian character whose style, quality and passion are clearly seen in its brands.” Benetton is famous for its clever advertising¹ campaigns.
