Shipyard: Ferretti Group?s Italian Heart, Global Reach
Boasting a record order book, Ferretti Group is working around the clock and across Italy to keep up with production, as it continues to upgrade and expand facilities in its six shipyards from the west coast to the east coast and in the north.

When you?ve been whisked around Italy to see all six of Ferretti Group?s shipyards, the words ?we never stop? come to mind. It?s a phrase that Ferretti Group CEO Alberto Galassi frequently uses when speeding through progress reports from a company that oversees seven yacht builders: Ferretti Yachts, Riva, Pershing, Custom Line, CRN, Itama and Wally, the company?s most recent brand acquisition.
Business was good in the post-Covid era, but it moved to a new level last year. Sales worth ?942 million in the first eight months of 2022 marked a 36 per cent increase on the same period in the previous year, with roughly 50 per cent of the Group?s order book from EMEA (Europe, Middle East, Africa), 40 per cent in the Americas and 10 per cent in Asia-Pacific.
Furthermore, the Group?s yacht production increased by about 20 per cent last year, while the total area of its facilities expanded over 14 per cent to more than 284,000sqm, with construction of new buildings evident in at least half of the shipyards we viewed.
