ABOUT THIS PROJECT

 Samà Srl, better known as the brand 3S SuperSamaStore, is a leading company in the trade of hydraulic and air conditioning materials. It was founded in 1976 and had grown over the years as a company with a strong, artisanal vocation. The company highly values customer relations and meeting the individual needs of its local customer base, a quality that a good family-run business and years of experience were able to enhance. In 2011, Sama Sri invested in e-commerce bringing their Lecco-based store online. Their bold move profoundly changed their business structure. Today, e-commerce is Sama Sri’s core business.

Samà Srl appears in all the main global search engines (Amazon, eBay) and has a yearly revenue of over 8.57 million USD.

Thanks to the positive sales trend and the increased workload, in 2020 the company invested in a new physical location: a 4700 sq. meter space for showroom, offices, and storage and shipping warehouses to manage its B2B and B2C sales channels (both onsite and online.
