Alpa

The company Alpa is a small but thriving entity located at the foot of the Sila Piccola, in Calabria, specialized in the processing and transformation of one of the most typical fruits of the territory: the chestnut. The company was founded in 1996, after the consolidation of the fruit marketing activity, which was initiated by the Gualtieri family in 1960.

Over the years, the company has grown significantly and has progressively expanded its range of products by producing numerous jams, creams, and top-quality preserves. However, the philosophy has always remained the same: enhancing the raw material, producing excellent products that reflect Italian tradition while also adding a touch of novelty. 

The production, amounting to about 5000 quintals per year, is carried out in a craft manner at the Rogliano (CS) facility, structured into three distinct departments that operate according to rules designed to maximize the naturalness of the product and food safety. The artisan processing preserves the quality and properties of the selected raw materials. Only the best seasonal Italian fruits are used to offer excellent, genuine, and natural products, maintaining the quality of strictly fresh fruits, without the use of preservatives and colorants.

Alpa: authentic by nature

The processing process, although it involves the use of modern equipment, is artisan and no preservatives and/or colorants are allowed, only quality seasonal fresh fruit. The combination of particular flavors and the use of a modern and careful pack ultimately make the products in the range unique and sought after, not only in flavor but also in appearance. In fact, Alpa produces products suitable for every need that are a delight for the palate and a charm for the eyes.

More than 70% of the production is organic.
