L'OCCITANE Group

Last week, Dr. Vranjes Firenze celebrated the grand opening of its newest flagship at Via Calimala 29R, right in the historic centre of Florence. This beautiful new location marks a key milestone for the brand as its first major opening since joining L’OCCITANE Group, and it reflects a deep commitment to craftsmanship and Tuscan heritage. The event brought together both local and international figures, including Reinold Geiger, Chairman and CEO of L’OCCITANE Group, along with Dr. Vranjes Firenze’s CEO, Giuseppe Colotto. They were honoured to welcome the Mayor of Florence and a variety of notable personalities from the local community. This new boutique - Dr. Vranjes Firenze’s fifth in Florence - represents a significant new chapter in the brand’s journey, with its elegant setting offering a fragrant tribute to the city’s rich cultural heritage. This opening is a celebration of local artistry, sustainable growth, and global ambitions, all captured in an unforgettable evening in Florence. #DrVranjesFirenze #LOCCITANEGroup #FlorenceBoutique
