“The partnership with the Tour de Suisse is an excellent opportunity for Q36.5. It will help us to promote the brand to a wider audience, but even more importantly it reinforces our connection with Switzerland, especially since we opened our first flagship store at Bärengasse 10 in Zurich last December.
The choice was not accidental or simply tied to the roots of the Bergamo-Emmasi family. In fact, precision, quality, minimalist design, and attention to detail are values that represent Switzerland to the world, and are the same values that guide our daily work and corporate philosophy.”
– Sabrina Bergamo Emmasi & Luigi Bergamo
