Europeo is a leader manufacturer in furniture production and represents one of Italy's most important and dynamic realty for its industrial manufacturing model and its development.
Europeo is part of the Petrovich Group that includes other furniture manufacturing companies owned by the Petrovich family.
The first plant is built where, still today, the company has its headquarters. Deep changes and an ongoing evolution have characterized the structure of the company in almost forty years.
The 2007 was a very peculiar year for Europeo as, since then and over the last TWENTY YEARS the Petrovich family ran the company up today with the same long view and enthusiasm. Twenty years during which the history of the company has coincided with the history of the Petrovich family.
A period through which the company has strengthened the strong liasons with the territory, the people and their craftsmanship, which represents the intense and important background where their activity is rooted and that cannot be renounced.
