Savvy shopping in the company outlets around Lake Orta. Factory outlets where you can find real bargains, make prestigious purchases at affordable prices.

If you like shopping and love to go in search of exclusive but affordable products, if prestigious brands are your passion, then this post is most definitely for you! Starting from La Darbia, early in the morning, perhaps on bad weather days, you can easily reach many renowned and interesting business outlets. Ours is a rich and industrious land, which boasts quality companies and which has brought to the market designer products and luxury items.


The homeland of the housewife is certainly located in Omegna, where the companies Bialetti, Alessi, Lagostina, Piazza which have shaped the industrial history of Cusio are based. In their factory stores, concentrated within a radius of a few kilometres, there are many items, including “seconds” or ends of series, from steel pots to famous Italian coffee makers, from small appliances to cutlery.
Another great tip for purchases is the store of Legnoart, a company that has been able to pass on the expertise of traditional woodworking by renewing it with a refined and original design. Their most coveted pieces are sturdy cutting boards, trivet and trays, as well as professional decanter sets and corkscrews.
If you are interested in pots and kitchen utensils at discounted prices, I would also suggest a visit to Barazzoni Outlet, the store of a company founded in Invorio more than a century ago and able to combine functionality with the elegance of an innovative design.

I point out to lovers of fine fabrics the wool and cashmere district located in nearby Valsesia, where some world famous factories operate. Loro Piana, for example, is a company of extraordinary prestige that offers a luxury outlet in Romagnano Sesia, a large store where you can find soft coats, enveloping sweaters, tailor-made clothes, but also plaids and luxury accessories. Another essential destination is the company shop of Lanerie Agnona, an ideal place to buy blankets and pillows, clothing and yarns, as well as products for home furnishings.
The showroom of Ermenegildo Zegna, an Italian brand of excellence, an important reference point for men's fashion, is also worth a visit. This famous wool mill was founded in 1910 in Trivero and immediately established itself in the field of quality fabrics. Even today in the outlet of Oleggio are offered, at affordable prices, many elegant and sporty garments, tailor-made clothes.

On the shore of Lake Maggiore, right next to the factory, in the town of Lesa, the Herno company has been opening a wonderful store for some years. This Italian brand, synonymous with quality and elegance, has created a company store that lives up to expectations, a modern and well-stocked place, where you can buy refined outerwear such as the famous raincoats, the splendid trench coats and the fluffy down jackets.

So what are you waiting for? Let the shopping begin!
