The history of the Fagone Agricultural Company Agricoltura d'Eccellenza

It all began way back in the 80s, where Salvatore Noto, a young sixteen-year-old boy who was enterprising and determined to achieve his goals, began to become passionate about the cultivation of an extraordinary vegetable: the Giarratana onion.

After a few years of sacrifices and hard work, thanks to his savings he managed to buy the first van with which he began to sell and make the onion known in nearby towns.

He was not yet aware that this would create the foundation of the FAGONE company.

As time passed, the Giarratana Onion began to be increasingly requested by the market, so in 2006 Salvatore decided to start the transformation of the Giarratana Onion by creating the first line of preserves and managing to pass on the same passion to his children.

From here on, thanks to the experience of the father and the creativity of the children, the company begins to expand and make its products known nationally!
