Granarolo Ricotta cheese

Granarolo is a leading Italian agro-industrial group that specializes in high-quality dairy production. The product shown is a variety of Ricotta cheese, a staple of Italian culinary tradition. The packaging explicitly mentions it is produced in the establishment of Usmate Velate (MB) for Granarolo S.p.A., which is headquartered in Bologna.

Granarolo has a strong local identity, being owned by the Granlatte cooperative consisting of farmers across Italy. This structure ensures that the manufacturing and brand ownership remain deeply rooted in Italy, supporting the local dairy supply chain and ensuring traditional processing methods for their cheese and milk products. Today, it stands as one of the largest milk and dairy producers in Europe, maintaining its status as a cooperative-driven entity.
