FORNITURE NAUTICHE ITALIANE WAS BORN IN 1983 FROM ITS FOUNDERS SANDRO FARINA AND NENELLA MONTANARI
For 40 years FNI is the synonym of efficiency, professionality, and unlimited passion for the nautical. Founded in 1983 from the pioneering mind of Nenella Montanari and Sandro Farina, FNI is established as an icon of development and transformation: from a small, local, family run shop to an internationally recognized company with a European presence in continuous expansion.
Forty years serving those who work at sea. We don't distribute nautical supplies. We select, with technical rigour and industrial vision, the products that marine professionals cannot afford to get wrong. ISO 9001 Quality Certified, and exclusive Italian distributors for the most authoritative brands in professional marine worldwide, we offer our clients guaranteed stock and first-level technical expertise.
A team that knows the sea by trade. FNI's strength lies not only in the catalogue — over 15,000 products — but in the people who manage it. Every team member is a knowledgeable, ready consultant: able to listen to the client's problem and translate it into the right solution. Before the order and after delivery. Even when the question is complex. The fni.it e-commerce brings this expertise online, without losing the human contact that sets a partner apart from a supplier.
5,200 m² of logistics. Because in season, time is worth twice as much. Our Cecina headquarters, modern and forward-thinking, in the heart of Tuscany, was designed to respond with speed even under peak pressure. A warehouse of over 5,200 m² and advanced logistics systems allow us to move, pack and ship with precision. The result: guaranteed 24/48h dispatch even during the summer season.
Part of a European ecosystem. Rooted in Italy. FNI is part of the Alliance Marine Group, European leader in B2B distribution of equipment for recreational boating, the professional marine sector and the defence industries. A network that extends our operational capabilities and strengthens every partnership: the Group's European scale, FNI's Italian presence and accountability.
