Fruit and vegetables

Our reality grows in the heart of Emilia-Romagna; over time, producers from other areas of Italy characterized by a strong vocation for fruit growing have joined our cooperative. This has allowed a diversification and an extension of the production calendar that enable us to be present daily with fruit and vegetables in national and international markets.
In order to offer increasingly innovative and quality products, the utmost attention is paid to research and development of varietal novelties capable of satisfying the needs and tastes of consumers who are increasingly attentive and aware of their food choices.

Fruit and vegetables are subjected to careful controls during all stages of production: a team of experienced agronomic technicians monitors and assists member companies on a daily basis to ensure precise levels of quality. Once they reach our plants, fruit and vegetables are processed and packaged following the strictest standards required by EU regulations and our customers.
