1836 - 1855

Francesco Cirio - Great ideas for great passion.

Francesco Cirio was born in Nizza Monferrato (Asti) on December 25th 1836.

His father was a humble trader in grain and his exposure to this world had a profound effect on young Francesco.

With his amazing entrepreneurial capabilities, Francesco was already working at the fruit and vegetable market of Porta Palazzo in Torino by the age of fourteen.

A winning concept with Italian Fresh Produce.

At the time the increasing demand for fresh Italian products from markets in London and Paris was not being met. Observing this trend and the opportunity it presented, the young Cirio set up a company trading in fruit and vegetables with the transalpine and British cities and within just a few months he became Italy's most important agricultural exporter in Piemonte.

y

1856 - 1867

Worldwide succes - Thanks to preservation.

In 1856, at the age of twenty, Francesco Cirio was amongst the first in the world to be credited with developing technique of appertization (the inventor was Frenchman Nicolas Apperti). This method of preservation overcame the problem of exporting fruit and vegetables that was perishable by extending its "shelf life" and gave Cirio the ability to develop its global business, opening the first Cirio factory in Torino, and after the enormous success he achieved with peas, he extended the range to include various other food products, launching a thriving business that was capable of exporting throughout the world.

In 1867 Francesco Cirio presented his first products in Paris at the Exposition Universelle, where he recieved prestigious awards. After this, he began exporting all over the world from Liverpool to Sidney.

y

1868 - 1900, 1920 - 1970

Entrepreneur, trader, farmer.

Following the unification of Italy, Francesco opened production plants in southern Italy and he personally oversaw the recovery of vast areas of abandoned agricultural land that were prepared for cultivation of produce destined for fresh fruit and vegetables markets, and for his own factories.

On the event of his death on January 9th 1900, the Cirio industry - Società Generale delle Conserve Alimentari - was one of the largest and most prestigious food manufacturers in Europe.

Cirio present on the table of every Italian family.

From the mid 1920's onwards, with dexterous use of advertising and promotion, Cirio became a recognised family name in Italy and the products were used everywhere, making it one of the best-know brands in the Italian food industry. The brand was now identified for a wide range of produce, from canned vegetables to meat and fish, from pasta to coffee and from milk to jam...and much more.

y

1970 - 1993, 2004 - today

Just as nature made it, Cirio Preserves.

The work of the Signorini family continued successfully until 1970, when the company was sold to SME and in 1993 it was privatised.

Cirio and CONSERVE ITALIA.

In 2004, after changing fortunes, Cirio passed into the hands of GRUPPO COOPERATIVO CONSERVE ITALIA, a European leader in the food preservation industry. In many ways, this signalled a return to the origins of Francesco Cirio's passion for agriculture and his extraordinary commitment to innovation and agricultural and industrial research.

At the same time, it is a move towards a future based on capability and entrepreneurial success, without ever forgetting the social commitment towards the producers and the consumers, who are still offered the best pledge of natural products that are respected and responsibly safeguarded.

AUTENTICO ITALIANO DAL 1856

Italian cuisine is one of the oldest and most revered in the world and some of the dishes enjoyed around the world today, such as Polenta, remain almost unchanged from when they were originally prepared for Roman soldiers about 2000 years ago. Originally brought from the Americas by European explorers, tomatoes - pomodori or 'apples of gold' were found to thrive in Italy's climate and quickly flourished to become a common and very vital ingredient in everyday meals cooked by Italians. Cirio, THE TASTE OF ITALY FOR TOMATO FASHIONADOS.

Quality

The quality of Cirio's preserves comes from the exceptional quality of the 100% Italian raw produce and the extreme care we take throughout the growing, picking, processing and packaging process.

Quality controls are carried out in accordance with the Quality System and vigorous analysis is conducted throughout the entire production process; from the samples taken in the field before the harvest, to those taken on arrival at the production plant, right through to the finished product. This is what we mean when we say tracked "from seed to fork".

To better ensure quality, our Group even owns TERASEEDs, a company dedicated to industrial seeds ideal for best farming.

We employ advanced agronomists to monitor the crop on a daily basis during harvesting and our R&D Labs work closely with International Universities to present scientific findings at conferences worldwide.
