San Mauro Pascoli (Cesena), 6 April 2018 - Eight thefts in three and a half years for damage that exceeds one million euros in stolen goods. It is happening at the Giuseppe Zanotti shoe factory in San Mauro Pascoli which produces luxury shoes for women, men and children, as well as small leather goods, bags and various garments, with distribution all over the world. An escalation of thefts by professionals, most likely on commission, which can not be put on hold.

The last robbery from Zanotti to San Mauro took place on the night between Friday 30 March and Saturday 31. Although the company is equipped with a sophisticated alarm system and within it there is a fixed private security guard of the Civis, the thieves at 3.30 am they introduced themselves in the outlet site next to the company. They have taken away over a hundred products including footwear, accessories and clothing items intended for sale to the public, causing damage to the premises. The carabinieri arrived at the place in a few minutes, but when the thieves had already escaped with all the stolen goods.

The impressive series of burglaries began in November 2014 when thieves stole several hundred pairs of shoes from the warehouse ready to be shipped around the world. The second theft dates back to September 2015 at the old outlet of the outlet in Via Cagnona, with the thieves who took away over two thousand pairs of shoes for sale. Then in the same outlet there were three other minor thefts as a quantity of stolen material. In April 2016, the thieves introduced themselves into the main company, taking away a limited number of shoes, but creating serious inconvenience and damage. Also in 2016, in June, the outlet was stolen by about two thousand pairs of shoes intended for direct sale to the public, with thieves who introduced themselves from the warehouse behind it.

In addition to these eight thefts the valuable products signed by Giuseppe Zanotti are appetizing for thieves even in places that are not part of the headquarters of San Mauro Pascoli. In fact, other thefts took place directly from the trucks that were in shipping warehouses not only in Italy, but also abroad.

Scoramento and fear reign at the company of Giuseppe Zanotti for the long series of thefts that still go to hit items of value and class. An appeal to the institutions comes from the same company: "We have for some time been activating a number of surveillance systems, including a fixed supervision of private security, but this is not enough, so we ask for more controls from the authorities and we call on the institutions to act in a timely manner to face this emergency security that has not only affected our company, but also other shoe factories in the Rubicone Valley ".

Seems like the thieves may be getting inside help.

Also sounds like GZ is not willing to splash out more money for security

we ask for more controls from the authorities and we call on the institutions

Also sounds like GZ is not willing to splash out more money for security

I would think after the 1st time you'd reevaluate your security, let alone 9 times! That's unbelievable!

Insurance fraud?

There's something very odd about this situation. Wouldn't the Italian police have investigated this issue thoroughly, especially after the recurring burglaries? Perhaps it is the mafia! GZ is not telling the full story here.
