Mepra was founded in 1947, but the history of the Prandelli family begins in 1901 with the creation of Prandelli in the Lumezzane Valley. During the First World War, they produced bullets for the Italian army, and after the war the factory was transformed to produce other products. The brothers Pietro, Felice and Giacomo created Mepra and focused on stainless steel cutlery, which became a great success. Mepra then expanded its range to tableware, cookware and silver-plated products. Today, Mepra is a global company with over 8,000 products and a yearly addition of new collections, collaborating with prominent designers and known for its quality products.

Mepra products are used today in the world's most prestigious hotels, famous and award-winning restaurants and in hundreds of thousands of homes. Mepra represents three generations of Italian tradition, design and lifestyle.
