Raffaella Belotti

Product Manager
About

Working as Product Manager in a leader company as Dedar now. Coming from a wonderful and strong experience of 6 years managing a 4-stars Hotel in the biggest ski-resort in the world. My previous career pivoted around underwear (12 years as Product Manager at Lovable DBA for FILA sport brand), and hosiery (about 3 years in Benetton, as product manager, working on the total look for all the brands of the Group), managing and motivating my team. Furthermore, I held other roles concerning commercial and technician areas, as well as sourcing Management vs. Asian facilities. From 2002 to 2009 I founded the Italian branch of a Hong Kong Trading company, dealing garments, and I managed it as Sole Director together with my team of 7 people. From 2009 to 2011 I also worked at a Sport&Fashion shop in Selva Gardena, Italy, where I handled garment sales, brands selection, purchases. This experience approached me to the mountain sports world, which I always find quite amazing. Later as consultant for an intermediary Company based in Bergamo, Italy, focusing on corsetry, I was Product&Sourcing Manager playing my role between Italian brands and Asian facilities.
