Founded in 1978, Zolano excels in crafting high-end Italian genuine leather sofas. The brand has since 2011 been carried by Versailes for the Indonesian market, establishing flagship stores in Malaysia, China and Australia before recently launching their flagship store in IDD PIK2.

Compared to Versailes, Zolano caters to a younger market, featuring contemporary, simple, and slim sofa designs. The most sought-after types are those utilising nubuck leather, which is top-grain leather sanded or buffed on the grain side, resulting in a velvet-like surface. “We have showcased Zolano, one of our best-selling brands, in our Versailes showroom at another location. People adore them for their Italian-style furniture at affordable prices,” explained Henny Makmur, the COO at PT Versailes Home Indonesia.
The opening of Zolano’s flagship store in IDD signifies the company’s readiness to expand its venture. Correspondingly, the team views the PIK area as an ideal location to capitalise on a lucrative business opportunity. This area is experiencing a surge in housing developments, creating a demand for home furnishings amongst homeowners.
Designed by Zolano’s in-house team, the showroom prioritises the comfort of a living room. Rooted in Zolano’s slogan, “Make Your World Complete,” the concept revolves around the philosophy that the living room serves as the heart of a home, with the sofa being its quintessential centrepiece. Since its inauguration, the store has successfully shipped furniture to various cities, including Bandung, Surabaya and Makassar. It’s only a matter of time before extending its reach further across the country.
