Shopping in Prato
Prato's textile industry developed in 1100 owing to the initiatives of skilled artisans and merchants. Today, after almost a thousand years, it maintains the ancient tradition helped by technologies that place Prato's textile production among the first in the world. From the various factories which every year produce and export knitwear and yarns to the whole world (from wool, to cashmere, but also silk, linen, cotton, viscose, micro fibres), derives an activity which more directly concerns consumers, the company stores or outlets, places where you can buy, at convenient prices, fashionable and even designer clothes.
