OUR STORY

Cantarelli: a name in the history of Parmigiano Reggiano since 1876.

The Cantarelli from Sant’ilario d’Enza were the first to export, between the ‘800 and the ‘900, in the Southern America and United States, thanks to Massimiliano and his son’s intuitions, who gave a first strong input to the opening to foreign markets.

Between 1950 and 1980, Bruno Cantarelli foresight, who combined commercial skills, a deep knowledge of the territory and cheese selection experience, made the company grow further abroad as well as in Italy.

Today, still in the original location, the Company is led by his son Massimiliano, who with his sons, the sixth generation, is witness of one of the longest-living companies in Italy.

After almost 150 years, the presence of the Cantarelli family guarantees, now as it was then, the possibility to taste an excellent product in every aspect, rich in original scents and smells, thanks to the particular maturation, that has always been carried out in our stone warehouses, built at the end of the’800.
