VSP Vision announced it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Marcolin from PAI Partners and other minority shareholders. The deal represents a major eyewear investment for VSP Vision and is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2025, subject to regulatory approvals.

Founded in 1961 in Italy, Marcolin designs, manufactures, and distributes eyewear collections in more than 125 countries. Its portfolio includes luxury and lifestyle brands such as Tom Ford, Zegna, Christian Louboutin, ic! berlin, Max Mara, and Guess. The company expanded its global presence and operations under PAI’s ownership, growing through acquisitions, licensing agreements, and portfolio renewals.

VSP Vision shares that Marcolin’s offerings will complement its existing eyewear business through Marchon Eyewear. The transaction follows the company’s strategy to expand its global reach and strengthen its eyewear capabilities.

“Joining VSP Vision is a perfect fit,” says Fabrizio Curci, CEO & general manager of Marcolin. “We look forward to combining our expertise, focus on craftsmanship, commitment to product innovation, and complementary portfolios.”
