Marina Nissim (in the photo), chairwoman of Bolton Group, defeated the fierce competition by establishing herself as the national winner of the twenty-sixth edition of the EY Award which annually celebrates Italian entrepreneurs at the helm of companies with a turnover of at least 40 million euros "who have given its contribution to territorial and national development, from an economic, social and environmental point of view".

WHO IS THE WINNER MARINA NISSIM

Nissim was named Entrepreneur of the Year "for the ability to lead an international group, whose products are consumed every day by millions of people, with a priority propensity for sustainability, the environment and the valorization of people, leading the company towards global and ethical growth,” reads the press release.

“I am very happy and honored to receive this important recognition today which I would like to share with all the people who dedicate their energies every day to the development of the Bolton group,” commented Nissim. “I would like to dedicate this important recognition to my father Joseph, founder of the group and my daily point of reference and inspiration”.

WHAT BOLTON GROUP DOES

Bolton Group is an Italian family and multinational company founded by Joseph Nissim, Marina's father, in Milan in 1949: it is active in the production and marketing of high quality consumer products. “It is an honor to be able to celebrate the excellence of Italian entrepreneurship every year, the true strength of our country and our economic fabric. In EY's DNA there has always been the desire to support entrepreneurs and help them overcome the challenges of our times", said Enrico Lenzi, Italy manager of the award.

THE BRANDS OF BOLTON

“Our success comes from our portfolio of 60 renowned brands in the Food, Home Care, Personal Care, Adhesives and Beauty Care sectors, which allow us to be present in the homes of 100 million families every day,” we read on the group's website. Here are some of the renowned brands: Rio Mare, Omino Bianco, Wc Net, Borotalco, Neutro Roberts, Chilly, Somatoline and Collistar.

WHAT EY IS AND WHAT IT DOES

What does the consultancy company do? “At EY, our purpose is Building a better working world . The services we provide help build trust in markets and economies around the world. Thanks to the skills of our people we can maintain the commitments made towards our stakeholders. In doing so, we play a fundamental role in building a better world of work for our people, for our clients and for the whole community", we read on the EY website.

THE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN EY AND BOLTON

However, it is surprising that the fact that there is an ongoing collaboration between EY, which organizes the award, and the award-winning Bolton Group has not been made explicit (no press source reports it). Simply go to the EY website to read: EY supports the Bolton Group's Food Business Unit in the transformation of the IBP , news dated 24 January.

Furthermore, in a piece dated November 30, 2021 we read: EY with Bolton in the acquisition of Madel, producer of ecological detergents . The article states: “Bolton was assisted by EY for integrated financial due diligence services, with a team led by partner Francesco Serricchio and manager Gianluigi Esposito, and tax, with a team led by associate partner Roberto De Bernardinis and by the manager Stefano Fusar Poli”. The same news is reported on Serricchio's LinkedIn .

Furthermore, on 15 October 2020, the economic insert of the Corriere published the article: "Kings and queens of money: in the crisis there are those who advance", which read: "In the darkest days of the lockdown, messages of trust and drive towards the future came from two entrepreneurs, Lucia Aleotti (Menarini) and Marina Nissim (Bolton Group). Of course, both shareholders of companies that have continued to work during this pandemic (Menarini is pharmaceutical, Bolton operates in consumer goods) and not forced to suddenly block everything like tourism, non-food distribution or fashion. But today, when the fear of having to experience a new period of standstill hovers over Italy, it is worth remembering their words: «It is in moments like those experienced from February onwards that you realize you cannot stop» (Aleotti). «Even in these difficult days we must look to the future with hope. Everything will be different when we leave again. But we need to start thinking about it now" (Nissim)". The piece on Corsera was written by Maria Silvia Sacchi and Guido Corbetta, the latter with an asterisk as "Professor of Family Business Strategy, holder of the Aidaf – Ey chair, Bocconi University".
