Salumificio San Carlo has been present for over 30 years as a producer of dry-cured meats (salumi) in the Piacenza area, in Emilia, an Italian region renowned for its food specialties. The company is located in Ziano, on the hills of the Tidone Valley, an ideal environment for maturing salumi.
The typical products of Piacenza’s territory, coppa, pancetta and salame, have always been at the heart of the company’s production and in the past few years these products have represented the focus of our company’s development plans. Salumificio San Carlo has thus become leader in the production of Coppa, Pancetta e Salame Piacentino DOP (PDO- Protected Designation of Origin). San Carlo joined the Consortium for Salumi Piacentini in 1993, contributing to the development of these protected productions.
In 2006, the company started its first clean-room for slicing, thus beginning the production of pre-sliced salumi, a complete range among which the DOP products stand out. In the following years more slicing lines were introduced to meet the ever growing demand for this kind of products of high service content for the consumer.
Salumificio San Carlo combines traditional productions with technologically advanced equipment in order to ensure high quality products.
