THE'use of ancient techniques, dating back to the Arab period, refined over time in the small village of Marzamemi, the drying and seasoning of tuna products, in a particularly suitable climatic zone, has made Salvatore Campisi, worthy of being considered one of the last connoisseurs of Traditions, the experience and care of a time now in extinction deserving of protection and recognition.

It should not be forgotten that Marzamemi is located in the municipality of Pachino: the company Campisi In recent years it has also dedicated itself to the processing and transformation of plant products, first and foremostthe red gold of Pachino, the “Pachino PGI Tomato”, known throughout the world for its infinite sweetness.

Authenticity, freshness of the raw materials and strict controls guarantee the highest quality“.

This aspect recalls one of the fundamental values of the Campisi company, namely its code of ethics. Aware of the fact that it lives off the fruits of the land and the sea, the company respects the territory by providing for the processing of products with guaranteed and controlled origin, such as the Pachino IGP Tomato or the use of fish caught exclusively by hook and never by slaughter, under the banner of a healthy relationship between man and nature.
