Honestly, digging through the snippets provided is kinda like trying to find a decent parking spot downtown on a Saturday. You get a bunch of info, but none of it *directly* says, “Hey, we got a big ol’ warehouse slingin’ Bottega Veneta goodies in, say, Germany.”
We *do* know they have a store in Bangkok (cool!), and that they’re all about that “craft in motion” thing, made in Italy. Seems very fancy, very *not* warehouse-y. And hey, they got fragrances, which are apparently inspired by Venice’s “history of cross-cultural”ness. I guess that’s relevant somehow? Maybe they store the fragrance ingredients in the EU before shipping ’em to Italy? Pure speculation, folks. Pure speculation.
Then there’s the whole “4000 employees in more than 30 countries” bit. That *could* mean they have distribution centers scattered around, including the EU. But it also could just mean they have a bunch of boutiques and designers and, like, marketing people dotted around the globe. They even boast about 56% of exec positions being held by women, which is great and all, but doesn’t exactly tell us where they keep all the handbags.
Now, the “Online Purchase” section *almost* gets us somewhere. It mentions handcrafted leather goods and luxury bags and all that good stuff. You’d THINK they’d mention where they ship from, right? Nope. Just “Select a language” and a vague warning about modifying the… something. It cuts off! Seriously, Bottega Veneta, get your website copywriters sorted.
So, my gut feeling? They *probably* have a warehouse or two in the EU. It just makes logistical sense, right? You can’t efficiently ship all that high-end stuff directly from Italy to every Tom, Dick, and Harriet who wants a new BV bag. But the provided text? Nada. Zilch. Just a bunch of vaguely related information that makes you feel like you’re browsing a disorganized luxury goods catalog.
