On June 28th, the new Catanzaro Pronto Hobby store opened, marking the seventh location for the DIY brand owned by Gruppo Raffaele. The group is well-established in the traditional hardware market through its wholesaler, Gieffe.

The Catanzaro Pronto Hobby store spans approximately 1,100 square meters of showroom space, along with an additional 500 square meters of outdoor area, completing the coverage of the Catanzaro metropolitan area. The store features all the classic departments, from technical products (leveraging the group’s expertise in the hardware market) to decoration, with a particular focus on gardening, lighting, and bathroom furnishings.

Giuseppe Minardi, CEO of Bricomaker, the consulting firm that oversaw the development and opening of the store, stated: “Thanks to our longstanding partnership with Gruppo Raffaele, which began in 2009, we are celebrating the opening of the seventh Pronto Hobby store today. This is a great achievement and a motivation for us to grow even further. We are already considering new potential expansion areas in our region to achieve full territorial coverage.”
