ABOUT US
OUR HISTORY
From father to son, a renewing tradition since 4 generations
At the beginning of the last century, the activity of the first generation of merchants of the BURDI family consisted in the withdrawal of almonds from the peasants with the exclusive help of horse-drawn carts, and in the “hand” shelling of the fruits for local resale.
In the 1940s Michele Burdi, belonging to the second generation, revolutionized the historical local tradition by inventing the first “shelling machine”. Later, helped by his sons, he installed a “primordial blanching line” of the almonds.
The third generation continued the work of innovation and development and thanks to the progress of its production process, supported important exports to countries such as Russia and the United States of America.
TREASURE THE PAST TO AIM FOR THE FUTURE
“I want to continue, today, to tell the ancient story of the BURDI family, with the same inventiveness and tenacity of my predecessors.
A story of four generations in which passion and experience have been handed down, in the sign of a tradition that is always in step with technological innovation”
Roberto Burdi, Administrator and dreamer
