Cirio Plum Tomatoes

Cirio is one of Italy's most iconic and historic food brands, specializing in high-quality tomato products. The brand's history dates back to 1856 when Francesco Cirio pioneered the commercial canning process in Turin to preserve perishable vegetables for export. Today, the brand is widely recognized for its commitment to traditional Italian agriculture and sustainability.

The production of Cirio tomatoes is deeply rooted in Italian soil, specifically sourcing plum tomatoes from regions like Puglia, as indicated on the packaging. The brand operates as part of an ethical cooperative model involving thousands of Italian farming companies. Cirio is currently owned by Conserve Italia, a major European agricultural cooperative group headquartered in Bologna, Italy. This ownership ensures that the brand remains tied to its original mission of promoting Italian produce globally while maintaining direct control over the farming and processing supply chain.
