Ancona, October 26, 2026
Ferretti Group has reached an important milestone in its industrial development with the approval of the first single authorisation for the ZES (Special Economic Zone) in the Port of Ancona. This step allows for the expansion of the Ancona Superyacht Yard, enabling an increase in yacht-building capacity from 90 to 100 metres. This advancement presents new opportunities within the upper segment of the global superyacht market. The construction is anticipated to take around six months.
The initial economic impact on the local area is projected to be approximately €30 million, setting the stage for further substantial investments.
Achieved in just 54 days, this authorisation is a notable accomplishment for Ferretti Group and demonstrates the effectiveness of aligning industrial aspirations with institutional collaboration and efficient execution.
The significance of this expansion extends beyond the additional ten meters. The capability to construct yachts of up to 100 meters will enhance Ferretti Group's position in the upper tier of the international superyacht market, broaden its prospects for future product development, and improve its competitiveness in more ambitious projects, where factors such as design quality, engineering sophistication, technological innovation, and manufacturing excellence play crucial roles.
The Ancona Superyacht Yard, covering nearly 80,000 square metres, stands as one of Ferretti Group's key industrial assets and serves as a strategic manufacturing hub for its superyacht operations.
This initiative mirrors Ferretti Group’s commitment to investing in Italy, where it aims to strengthen its industrial capabilities while also supporting the specialised network of suppliers, artisans, engineers, and manufacturing partners that contribute to the country’s luxury yacht industry.
Ultimately, this development underscores Ferretti Group’s belief that the creation of the world’s finest yachts should continue to be rooted in Italy, focusing on design, engineering, and production within the country.
