The company Corbara from Salerno has been producing work uniforms for hotels, restaurants and coffee bars - more than table linen, chair covers and table skirts - for more than three generations.

The owner of the family company is Mr. Ciro Corbara, who ensures customized design and realization in a very short time depending on the customers’ needs. “In order a hotel to stand out”, Mr. Ciro Corbara specifies, “more than the building architecture and the design of interiors and furnishings, it must make its staff immediately recognizable. That’s why the uniforms must be coordinated as to model and colour, more than being practical and elegant at the same time. A choice that provides the hotel with its particular image and must be designed depending on the type of surrounding environment. For example, if a design hotel wants to stand out for its oriental style, the uniforms shouldn’t be classical.” For such purpose Corbara has a very wide experience, thanks to the work of the inner style centre that often interacts with the architect of the hotel in order to coordinate decorative elements.

This working style is very appreciated, in fact Corbara’s professional wear was chosen for the staff of the refined Meneghino Restaurant in the serial “Benvenuti a Tavola, Nord vs Sud” that was on the air in May on Canale 5.
