The triumph of Italian style: design and creativity hand-in-hand with a farsighted and enlightened entrepreneurial spirit, production and technology that embody the finest Italian knowhow, and an ability to innovate, amaze and surprise.

Azimut Benetti Group wins with a record 2,840 meters of yachts over 24 meters under construction at the shipbuilder’s six yards.

The Group closed fiscal 2016-2017 with value of production standing at €710 million, continuing the growth trend of the last five years.

Italian Style is the key word behind the success of Azimut|Benetti Group, which is once again the world’s top builder of yachts measuring over 24 meters this year, according to the Global Order Book 2018, the international ranking of the 20 top boat builders published recently by prestigious magazine Boat International.

Over and above the extraordinary numbers – 2,840 m of Azimut Yachts and Benetti branded yachts and a remarkable 77 active projects – the Italian shipbuilder confirms its natural leadership and excellence, built on strategic choices that have always proved, with passing time, to be the right ones.

A brilliant mix of creativity and pragmatism has seen the Group tackle an evolving business and market scenario, without affecting its commitment to three key paradigms: offering the best innovative technical solutions combined with the creative flair of designers and artisans; maintaining ownership within the family of founder Paolo Vitelli; and striving constantly to innovate with the creation of new trends and product categories.

The latest frontiers of the Group’s ability to innovate include series production with the extensive use of carbon fiber, as well as the technical partnership with Rolls Royce to develop a cutting-edge propulsion system, with important repercussions in terms of a 15-20% reduction in fuel consumption and greater onboard comfort.

Azimut|Benetti closed 2016-2017 reporting value of production standing at €710 million, continuing the growth trend of the last five years (+20% from 2011-2012 to 2016-2017).

The Global Order Book confirms its authoritative standing, providing an accurate annual performance report and publishing information on actual orders for yachts measuring 80 feet in length and over.
