Almost all 107 small factories in Val Trompia deal with weapons and 50% of sales are inevitably guaranteed by a giant like Beretta. Furthermore, a large part of the population is employed in this sector, a job that has been handed down from generation to generation. The Times interview with Franco Gussalli Beretta it is also a romantic historical excursus that traces the five centuries of activity. Faithful replicas of weapons have been used in several films, a sign that even international cinema relies confidently on the Italian sector (Pedersoli is equally very popular).
Again with regard to these companies, 90% of the production of Val Trompia is destined for export, especially to the American market. A journalistic praise that highlights the great attention and a pinch of "envy" towards the Made in Italy of quality.
