Finder, historical trademark of national interest
As a result of all the documentation uncovered, Finder’s bid to be included in the special register was successful, and we were recently recognized as a Historical Trademark of National Interest by MISE
The Special Register of Historical Trademarks of National Interest, established in 2019 by the Italian ‘Ministry of Enterprises and Made in Italy’ (MISE), champions ‘Made in Italy’ and celebrates Italian trademarks that have a long historical tradition, i.e. ones which have been registered for at least 50 years, and can demonstrable at least fifty years’ continuous use in industry and commerce.
The Finder brand is now seventy years old. However, obtaining inclusion in this prestigious national register required painstaking and meticulous research in the company’s historical archives. We had to find seek and find documents, photographs and many other kinds of material that could prove the continuity of the brand’s use, and emphasize its Italian essence.
As a result of all the documentation uncovered, Finder’s bid to be included in the special register was successful, and we were recently recognized as a Historical Trademark of National Interest by MISE, confirming the historic authenticity of the company and its products. Over the years, Finder has been guided by the desire to keep true to its roots, and to maintain the values that have made it the company it is today: Independent, innovative, and proudly Italian.
This achievement underscores the importance of sustainability and Italian excellence, giving further visibility to a brand that proudly represents the production output and identity of our country.
