King of Cotton was established in April
1995 in the UK having been founded in Northern Italy in the town of Gallarate
as ‘Re di Cotone’, the Italian for 'King of Cotton' in 1880.
At that time, it was
owned by a businessman by the name of Alceste Pasta, and one of his key workers
at the time was a Signore Pastorelli, who took over ownership upon the departure of
Alceste.
The Pastorelli family are still the
current owners of the Italian business and continue to supply cotton products
to the Italian market, both retail and commercial.
It was in 1995 that Hector James Gauld, the brother in law
of Paolo Pastorelli asked permission to use the branding and name of the
Italian business in the United Kingdom with an aim to supplying Hotels with
premium products sourced throughout the world, but principally in Italy.
So began the UK version of 'King of
Cotton' and over the years the Company developed a reputation for providing
high quality cotton products at a fair price, coupled with a high level of
service.
Eventually demand grew, not only in the
Hotel sector but with the guests that had experienced the actual products
during their stay, and the bathrobes, towels and other selected items became
available for purchase at some of these Hotels.
Momentum gathered, and in 2003
www.kingofcotton.com was launched, allowing a wide range of beautiful products
to be made available to all who required premium products, that were difficult
to find, at prices that were designed for a corporate world.
King of Cotton is now the 'go to'
supplier for fine establishments and households throughout Europe, and can now
be found in London, Paris, Brussels, Nice and Marbella, and, with 8 outlets
across 5 countries, their finest cotton products can be found extensively
across the continent both online and in store.
By choosing King of Cotton, you can be

the foothills of the Italian Alps 140 years ago.
