Our story began in 1938, when Giovanni Bidon, Roberto's father and Stefano Bidon's grandfather,
began making clogs and selling them at the markets (with a donkey and a cart) together with his
wife Palmira.
But Giovanni and Palmira were born salesmen and much preferred trade to craftsmanship: so, right from the start, they pushed their business in this direction.
In 1975 the second chapter of the story began: Giovanni, together with his son Roberto and his wife Marisa, opened the first Bidon store in Fossalta di Portogruaro.
Commitment, tenacity and love for work encouraged growth: thus, the first extra-family hires
began.
One hire after another, in 1998 the team expanded to the point of needing new headquarters: we
packed our bags!
This is the year we moved our shop on the main road and the breakthrough year: the work
increased dramatically and the name Bidon began to spread to the neighboring regions too.
So much so that in 2013 we moved again! At our home, where we are now.
After many years of experience in the sector, we deserved a special location: a place where
natural and artificial light highlight the carefully chosen materials and enhance the details of the
products we offer.
And so, welcome to Bidon!
