EssilorLuxottica will soon be testing the production of its Smart Eyewear in Italy.
The Italian-French eyewear group announced on Tuesday, together with national trade union federations Filctem Cgil, Femca Cisl and Uiltec Uil, that it will introduce the first production lines for wearable devices in Italy on a trial basis from the second half of the year. The initiative particularly concerns the historical work in Agordo. An entire production area there will be completely converted and put into operation for the new industrial activities by the beginning of 2027.
“Bringing the production of our wearable devices to Italy, starting with the factory in Agordo, is a strategic and industrial decision of great value for the group and the region,” said EssilorLuxottica CEO Francesco Milleri. “It is an ambitious project that requires expertise, a solid supply chain and an ecosystem that can support innovation, quality and rapid implementation. We are convinced that this challenge can only be overcome through a strong synergy between all parties involved.”
