Fatina Pinoli (Pine Nuts)

Fatina is a well-established Italian brand specializing in the selection and distribution of high-quality dried fruits, nuts, and legumes. The brand is particularly recognized for its iconic mascot, a blue fairy, which has graced its packaging for decades. While Fatina manages the selection and quality control from its facilities in Italy, the raw materials such as pine nuts are often sourced globally from countries like China, Turkey, or Mediterranean regions depending on the specific variety and seasonal availability.

The brand is owned by Besana (V. Besana S.p.A.), a historic Italian leader in the nut industry founded in 1921. In 2020, the Spanish group Importaco acquired a majority stake in Besana, creating one of the largest nut processing groups in Europe. This partnership has strengthened Fatina's distribution network and sustainable sourcing capabilities across European markets.
