Oleificio Zucchi

Oleificio Zucchi was founded in 1810 near Lodi, Lombardy, Italy, as a family business milling oil-seeds to produce oil for human consumption. The first industrial site was constructed in 1922 near Cremona, and gradually expanded to become a real factory. In 1946 the Zucchi family established the joint-stock company Oleificio Zucchi SpA, still in business today, and restarted production after the difficult wartime years. From the mid ‘50s, Oleificio Zucchi became a supplier of choice for the private labels of the leading retail chains. In the early ‘90s, the business’s constant expansion led to the move to the current plant, on a site of 80,000 m2 next to the navigable canal of Cremona. Under the guidance of the family Zucchi, still directly involved in the company's management, the plant has been modernised to the state of the art, enabling it to constantly respond to the market’s demands in terms of product quality and environmental impact, with a special focus on constant quality of service and flexibility of offering. The last few years have seen Oleificio Zucchi introduce another important new development: the launch of the olive oil line, the natural completion of its product range. The history and continuous innovation of Oleificio Zucchi, now established leader on the domestic market, have made it the modern trade sector’s most trusted, reliable partner as well as an innovative player on the seed and olive oil market.
