I am on Beretta Australia's mailing list, and received this today:
Beretta Holding has signed an agreement for the acquisition of 100% of Holland and Holland Ltd. The deal takes effect from February 1, 2021 (terms and conditions are not disclosed).
Holland & Holland is one of the foremost brands in British gun-making, serving elite international clients with the world’s finest handmade shotguns and rifles.
Beretta Holding has been looking to acquire a premium luxury brand, and Holland and Holland is a fitting partner, fulfilling all the elements of finest gun making; a rich history, independent manufacturing facilities and outstanding products. Beretta Holding wishes to preserve the precious heritage of Holland & Holland in the United Kingdom with a high dedication to skilled craftsmanship.
Pietro Gussalli Beretta, President and CEO of Beretta Holding has declared: “This is a truly exciting development and a great achievement for the Beretta family, further increasing the Group’s international footprint. Faced with the Brexit challenges, I am very pleased to increase our direct presence in the important UK market, where we are already active with our well-established distribution subsidiary.”
Included in the deal is the prestigious Holland & Holland Shooting Ground, located in West London, which boasts some of the finest facilities in the UK.
Beretta Holding is committed to the shooting sports sector and has a proud history of investing in brands that come under its umbrella and will continue to do so with its newest acquisition, Holland & Holland, to the benefit of this famous gun maker.
Interesting!

Wondering why Chanel luxury brand Group
let H&H go...
In 2020 Chanel appointed Nicholas Holt
as Chairman and CEO of H&H.

Yay. I eagerly await an H&H double with a synthetic stock and a matte finish. Maybe they’ll move production to Maryland.....🙄😜

LoL so you were happy with a women's fragrance company owning H&H, but not a gun company. Beretta already has some nice sidelocks. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/qvPpHw8D/IMG-20210202-155604.jpg)

It is almost as if Beretta didn't have over 500 years in the gun business, 15 generations of the same family running the show, or any experience with premium offerings.

At least those Remington clowns didn't get ahold of H&H.

From everything I have read, Chanel left H&H alone to do what they have always done.
I hope the H&H craftsmen will be so lucky with Beretta.

Why would H&H be less 'lucky' being owned by Beretta ? What are you sad about exactly ? I suggest reading the release by Beretta Holdings chair and CEO regarding the purchase. From everything I have read, Chanel left H&H
alone to do what they have always done.
Actually no, Chanel Group came in over the top appointing a new CEO and Chairman to H&H. from 'everything you read' you didn't know about such a significant change.
