With high levels of freedom in trade, business and investment, Italy is a first class exporter of goods. In spite of problems in recent years, it has managed to maintain its lead in many sectors.
Italy is best known for engineering, cars and fashion. However, its name is also commonly associated with industries such as chemicals, wine, ceramics and machinery.
Fashion is the first thing to come to mind for many when they think of Italian products. The Italian fashion industry first shone during the Renascence and, since then, a long line of designers have helped bring Italian fashion to forefront of world fashion.
With its clothing and textile brands advertised and sold around the world, Italian clothing is familiar to pretty much everyone. Whilst it has the image of catering to the luxury market, its real success is based upon the production of casual and designer wear at affordable prices.
Italy’s automotive industry is one of its major success stories. Fiat came to symbolize Italy’s growing economy when Italy was rising rapidly, but Italian automobiles now call to mind various names like Ferrari, Lamborghini, Maserati and Lancia.
These names are testament to the diversity in the range and variety of automobiles produced in Italy. Whilst their lower priced cars have struggled to compete with those being manufactured in emerging nations, sales of their higher priced ones have remained stable, and are expected to rise in the future.
Engineering is another important component of Italian industry. Italy leads in various sectors of engineering . Apart from cars, some major exports in the field are specialized machine tools, motorcycles and electric goods. With attention to detail and quality, these Italian products have remained competitive even though they are typically not the cheapest option.
