Born and raised in Rottenburg, a small and sleepy town in southern Germany to a family of civil servants, there was nothing to indicate that Francesco Alfredo Sessler would make a name for himself in the textile industry at a young age.
At the age of 14, Francesco preferred to spend his time in fashion shops rather than at school. For this reason, he was expelled from school in the eleventh grade for excessive absenteeism.
Unhindered by this, Francesco pursued his passion for the finer things in life. After completing his studies, he found himself already in his early 20s in positions of responsibility at industry giants such as s.Oliver, Inditex and LVMH.
At the age of 25, Francesco founded the ARTIS Fashion Group, which is now known as a fashion agency far beyond the German borders and can call renowned companies in the industry its clients.
With innovative sales concepts, sustainable in-house solutions and always a responsible view of environmental factors, Francesco and his company are doing pioneering work in an ailing industry.
In the last 6 years, the ARTIS Fashion Group has achieved remarkable successes, for which the 30-year-old symbolically stands as the head and face of the company.
