Central Formaggi is a renowned Italian producer specializing in traditional pecorino cheeses from the Sardinia region. The 'Il formaggio dei fraticelli' (The Friars' Cheese) is an artisan pure brebis (sheep's milk) cheese that pays homage to traditional monastic cheesemaking methods.

The brand is rooted in the Veraldi family's heritage, which moved from the Italian mainland to Sardinia in the late 19th century to establish a cheese manufacturing tradition that combines ancient recipes with modern food safety standards. The product is manufactured entirely in Italy, specifically in Sardinia, where the sheep's milk is locally sourced to maintain its protected geographical characteristics.

Central Formaggi remains a family-operated entity under the corporate umbrella of Central Formaggi S.r.l. This focus on family ownership ensures that the brand maintains its commitment to traditional Sardinian dairy crafts while distributing high-quality pecorino products to international markets.
