Our Italian history

1902
In 1865, Francesco Bertolli set up a small delicatessen in the town of Lucca, in the heart of the Tuscan countryside where olive trees abound. His tiny shop sold local products that are characteristic of the Tuscan region, such as olive oil, wine, cheese and olives in casks, crates and sacks. Fun fact: the Bertolli logo is shaped like Lucca’s main square.
