Hully Briars, employing 40 workers, was already wellestablished during the 1900\'s. Igino Moretti and his wife joined Hully Briarswhen at its peak, employing about 50 workers. Half the pipe production wasdestined to a third party, while the other half was sold under the nameBEP-SON, a combination of the first syllables of both owners\' names: Beppe andSonia. Soon after, Igino Moretti became the principal Hully Briar pipe maker,but the company itself had to close down. Having passed a railroad test, IginoMoretti then had to choose between driving trains and making pipes. Thankfully,the latter was he choice and consequently, Igino Moretti founded the brand\"Moretti Recanati\" during the year 1968. During his first years,Igino Moretti continued to produce pipes for others and started his own linecarrying the name Moretti.
