Frenexport receives the prestigious NAMM Milestone Award for 50 years of business

Frenexport SpA is proud to celebrate a remarkable milestone: the company has received the prestigious NAMM Milestone Award, presented during the NAMM Show 2026 in Anaheim, California.

The award recognizes 50 years of continuous activity in the professional music and entertainment industry, highlighting Frenexport’s long-standing commitment to innovation, quality and strong partnerships both in Italy and internationally.

More than an anniversary, this recognition celebrates a journey built on entrepreneurial vision, reliability and meaningful relationships developed over decades with manufacturers, partners and industry professionals.


50 years of growth driven by passion and innovation

Founded in 1976 in Recanati by Bruno Frenquelli, alongside his wife Rita Frenquelli, Frenexport has grown to become one of Italy’s leading distributors of musical instruments, audio technologies, lighting solutions and professional systems for entertainment and system integration.

Over the past five decades, the company has successfully consolidated strategic international partnerships, developed proprietary brands recognized by the market, and invested in logistics, expertise and value-added services. Throughout this journey, Frenexport has accompanied the technological evolution of the industry while remaining firmly rooted in its core values.

This growth has also been supported by the contribution of Bruno and Rita’s sons, Romano Frenquelli, Vice President, and Daniele Frenquelli, General Manager.


The recognition awarded, presented by John Mlynczak, President of NAMM, one of the most influential organizations in the global music industry, testifies to Frenexport’s ongoing commitment to promoting quality products, innovation and professional support across more than five decades of activity.

A journey built day after day through strong relationships with customers, suppliers and partners.


A message from Daniele Frenquelli

Speaking during the award ceremony, Daniele Frenquelli, partner at Frenexport, said:

“Receiving this award at NAMM for Frenexport’s 50th anniversary was a moment of great pride and emotion. It represents the recognition of a journey that began half a century ago, built on passion, daily commitment and the relationships we have developed over time with partners, customers and collaborators.”

“This milestone is not a finish line, but rather a motivation to keep looking ahead. Frenexport has grown thanks to the people who are part of it and to our ability to evolve together with the market, while always staying true to our core values.”

“Receiving this award in an international setting like NAMM means carrying with us the story of an Italian company that has built credibility and vision over time. A sincere thank you to everyone who has contributed to making this journey possible.”


Frenexport would like to thank all its employees, partners and customers who have been part of this journey. With the same dedication and passion, the company looks ahead to the future and to the new challenges that lie ahead.
