DE SOTO – Your Partner in International Business

 

Founded in Warsaw in 1988, DE SOTO has focused on fostering commercial partnerships between Poland and Italy. Initially, we specialized in establishing business contacts for companies in both countries. Over time, we built a reputation as a reliable intermediary in the automotive, food, and industrial sectors. Our first major representative agreement in 1995 with a leading Italian auto parts manufacturer marked a significant milestone. Since then, we have continually developed our competencies, adapting to the changing economic landscape and seeking new challenges.
