Since 1895

Producing food is much more than doing business.
We have the responsibility to feed people while preserving the environment as a legacy for future generations.
There is an ethical way to produce food by taking care of the soil, respecting animal rights, avoiding the use of chemicals, and reducing waste.
We believe in this approach, and this is how foods become Good, not just in taste.

This is our belief and our Sustainable Future, since 1895.

Nicola Bertinelli

Farm 4.0

 

Nicola Bertinelli, a central figure in the Bertinelli Farm, embodies the transformation of this centuries-old agricultural enterprise into a 4.0 model, where creativity has proven to be its main resource.

Encapsulated in a story that dates back to 1895, the farm has evolved thanks to the passion and skills of Nicola Bertinelli, who has skillfully reinterpreted the valuable teachings of his great-grandfather Giovanni and his father Gianni. This transformation has turned the historic family business into an innovative prototype of a business.

 

With two degrees, one in Agricultural Sciences and one in Economics and Commerce, both obtained at Cattolica University, and a prestigious master’s degree in Economics from the University of Guelph in Canada, Nicola spent four years as an Economics Professor before returning to his homeland. Here, he revolutionized the approach in the agri-food sector, completely reinventing the production process.
