🍭 Compagnia Italiana Sali has distributed "Gemma di Mare" sea salt in Italy since 1974, a product known for preserving its organoleptic qualities through natural production via sun, sea, and wind. The brand has been a market reference in Italy's food salt sector, innovating and diversifying its range to cater to various consumer tastes and qualities. Andrea Pedrazzini is the brand's Marketing and Communication Manager. The company was the first in Italy to produce iodized sea salt for retail, in partnership with the Ministry of Health. Recently, Gemma di Mare was included in the register of historical national interest trademarks by the Ministry of Enterprises and Made in Italy, a testament to products with over fifty years of market presence, excellence, and historical link to the territory. Their product lines now include classic and iodized salts, whole salts from Sicily and Sardinia, Gourmet salts, and Bicarbonate. The production facility is in Porto Viro, Rovigo, upholding HACCP standards and IFS Food certification, with an entirely Italian supply chain.
