On May 15th, 1888, two teenagers, Aaron and Henry Belber, left Europe and traveled to Philadelphia with their father Selig. Sailing on board the Cumberland from Hamburg they reached the city that would soon see their dreams come true.In 1891, the brothers started making and selling luggage in their Philadelphia home basement and Belber was officially born. The first factory opened in 1903 and two more brothers, Maurice and Herman joined the team in the early 1900s.With their motto, “As Modern as Tomorrow”, the Belber's became real experts in luggage engineering and innovation as well as new business pioneers. Strong customer service approach, affordable prices, beautiful and original craftsmanship and attention to detail were key pillars in every collection and campaign they produced.
