Manfrotto Tripods and Camera Accessories

Manfrotto is a premier Italian brand renowned globally for its high-quality camera supports, lighting stands, and photography accessories. Founded in 1972 by Lino Manfrotto, a photojournalist in Bassano del Grappa, Italy, the brand was born out of a practical need for lighter and more versatile studio equipment. Today, Manfrotto maintains a strong identity as an Italian manufacturer, with its primary production facilities still located in Feltre and Bassano del Grappa.

In 1989, the brand was acquired by the Vitec Group, a UK-based holding company that expanded the brand's reach significantly. In 2022, the Vitec Group rebranded itself as Videndum PLC to reflect its broader role in the digital content creation market. Under Videndum's ownership, Manfrotto continues to be a market leader, catering to both professional photographers and casual content creators while maintaining its reputation for Italian design and engineering excellence.
