Thanks to our consolidated experience in agriculture, to the close collaboration with local farmers and to the technical-productive know-how that distinguishes us, we launched the 100% Italian integrated basil supply chain in 2025. On the tomato model, it is a fully controlled supply chain that guarantees high quality standards at all stages. The farms that cultivate our basil are already all ISCC Plus certified, a standard whose basic requirements are traceability and sustainability.
Basil is sown in May in the fields of our farmers, and cultivated with attention to climate, irrigation and soil quality, to ensure healthy and fragrant leaves.
The plants are harvested in summer, at the optimal time of maturation, to preserve their freshness and scent.
Freshly picked basil is selected, washed and transformed with cutting-edge technologies to keep its organoleptic characteristics and food safety parameters intact.
The transformation of fresh basil, a few hours after harvest, takes place in our Fontanellato plant, with a new dedicated line, the result of a significant investment, to ensure maximum food safety and products, such as pesto and semi-finished products, that preserve all the genuineness and scent of freshly picked basil, according to the tradition of true Italian cuisine.
