About us
Mtrading was founded in Milan in 1985 under the name Mamiya Trading, with a clear focus on both professional and amateur photography. From the very beginning, the company specialized in bringing premium photographic solutions to the Italian market. The first brand imported and distributed was Mamiya, one of the most respected names in photography at the time and the preferred choice of renowned professionals, including celebrated photographer Oliviero Toscani.
In 1986, the company further strengthened its market position by adding Sigma to its portfolio. The prestigious Japanese brand quickly became recognized worldwide for its exceptional lenses and flash systems for SLR cameras, embodying the same values of quality, innovation, and performance that have always guided Mtrading.
Our commitment to the photography industry was further reinforced through the distribution of Hama, the leading German manufacturer of photographic accessories and one of Europe’s most established brands in the sector. This milestone significantly enhanced our presence in the Italian market, consolidating Mtrading’s reputation as a trusted importer and exclusive distributor of premium international brands.
Starting in 1990, Mtrading expanded beyond photography and entered the rapidly growing consumer electronics and mass-market sectors. Through our exclusive partnership with Hama, we broadened our offering to include audio, video, multimedia, and telecommunications products, successfully responding to the evolving needs of both retailers and consumers.
Today, Mtrading continues to grow by carefully selecting innovative brands and technologies that meet the demands of an increasingly dynamic marketplace. This growth strategy is supported by a strong commitment to operational excellence and logistics. Over the years, we have continuously expanded and optimized our facilities, enabling us to efficiently manage an extensive product portfolio and ensure fast, reliable, and nationwide distribution throughout Italy.
