== History == In 1833, Italian-born merchant Johann Peter Jelmoli, settled permanently in Zürich, Switzerland, after being deployed there by his father-in-law to manage Ciolina Brothers which was a well known textile firm in Schipfe directly on the Limmat river. He brought the new concept of fixed prices where prices were posted and no price negotiation was expected. In 1834, Jelmoli added a mail-order business, and found great success.
