About us
Italians know a little something about beauty and art!! From the stunning masterpieces of
Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and Botticelli, to the famous actresses Sophia Lorena and
Gina Lollobrigida.
At Granducati, we are particularly devoted and fascinated by the Italian passion for beauty - of
making things genuine and authentic, like the Olivella Beauty Line made from 100% Virgin Olive
Oil, the luxurious Nesti Dante Soaps from Florence, the Tauleto Vinotherapy for Spas, our
Monotheme Fragrances from Venice and the delicate Linea Bimbi for babies produced in Genoa.
Italians have perfected their appreciation for beauty and health - and our admiration for Italian
design and style have lead us to bring them to you: authentic body care products, soaps,
creams, lotions, skincare and fragrances from companies that are legends, maybe unknown to
the rest of the world.
Since we started Granducati in 2004, we have established preferential agreements with the
Italian manufacturer with the intent to bring you the best that the Italian market has to offer.
Still today, beauty products Made in Italy preserve the tradition and integrity, the balance and
harmony; and most importantly, the glorification of the beauty of the earth and the spirit of
life....We at Granducati believe in this!

History - In 1957, when Umberto Ariani decided to navigate from Italy to the Americas, his vision
was to offer the very best of Italian products in that part of the world.
Umberto Ariani and wife Sofia, founded Emporio Italiano, S.A. – an Import & Export firm for
Italian companies whose brand names were unknown outside of Italy at the time – such as Persol
sunglasses, Pino Silvestre perfumes, Vidal Toiletries, Spumante Riccadonna, Liquore Strega,
Borotalco Roberts, Prodotti Ciccarelli, Brillantina Linetti, Pasta Cirio, and many more...
Today, 47 years later, Sergio Ariani, founder of Granducati Exclusive Imports, Inc., a Florida-
based company, continues a family entrepreneurial spirit by embracing and offering Italian made
products across the United States, Caribbean and Latin American countries, much similar to what
Umberto established under Emporio Italiano back in 1957.
Since its foundation in 2004, Granducati has achieved a reputation of representing and importing
only the best bath and body products, and soon became a pioneer by offering unique and
authentic Italian beauty products in the US and Latin America. Granducati was one of the first to
introduce Italian olive oil personal care products, a natural baby care line, Italian suncare
products, and many more fine products into the U.S. market. To attain this distinction we travel to
Italy's best trade shows, where we carefully select companies and products. Our priority is to
maintain a very close relationship with all our suppliers, and expose our company representatives
to the superior caliber of our products. Granducati's belief is that working together with our
suppliers enables us to protect the promise to our customers of only representing the finest quality
products.
Granducati was born with a vision - from father to son which started with Cavaliere Umberto Ariani
in the late 1950's. Granducati is family owned and operated, and has established that distinct
quality, and superior service is the precise formula needed to keep a customer satisfied. Our
reward is our extensive list of customers…
Granducati..., the name:
The name "Granducati" is derived from the Italian "Gran Duca" meaning "Grand Duke" in English,
and "magnus dux" in Latin.
Il "Granducato di Toscana" (English: Grand Duchy of Tuscany) was a state in central Italy that
existed from 1569 to 1859, namely during the beginning of the Renaissance period. The Grand
Duchy consisted of most of the territory of the current Italian region of Tuscany, with the exception
of the northernmost portions. The Grand Duchy's capital was in Florence.
The Grand Duchy was initially ruled by the Medici family. The first "Gran Duca" or Gran Duke was
Cosimo I de' Medici, under his rule, Florence reached its highest political importance and
material prosperity and almost doubled its territories—notably by the acquisition (1555) of the
republic of Siena.
