Embassy of the Italian Republic, The Hague: Bvlgari’s International Sales President Lelio Gavazza was awarded the rank of Commander of The Order of Star of Italy by HE Ambassador Andrea Perugini on behalf of HE the President of Italian Republic, Sergio Mattarella.
During the eulogy for President Gavazza, Ambassador Perugini highlighted that “In his professional path he has achieved impressive results not only in the interest of his own company but also in the public interest of the Italian State, in so far as he has successfully promoted Italy and the perception of excellence that Italy and its products represent worldwide. This outcome flows from his mastery of the skills required to be a successful businessman.
He was able to increase and disseminate to unprecedented levels the brand awareness of Bvlgari‘s craftsmanship and, in so doing, the brand awareness of Italian products because he brings special added value to his business approach, to his unswerving daily commitments.
This is passion, enthusiasm, dedication and stamina, always flavoured with a very human and warm touch. Lelio throws his heart and soul beyond the obstacle and then takes the jump. After all, he sells the Italian way of life, and the Italian tradition. He does not only sell objects but emotions which make Bvlgari so attractive.
Lelio, I hope this important recognition will ignite further positive motivation as a real Ambassador of The made in Italy. We and Italy need you”
The Order of the Star of Italy is granted to recipients who engage in the preservation and promotion of national prestige abroad, promoting friendly relations and co-operation with other countries and ties with Italy.
