Just to get to know
each other better
Agriform is the biggest
producer in the Veneto region of Grana Padano and other
typical regional cheeses (Asiago, Montasio, Monte Veronese).
We are based in Sommacampagna (Verona)
where we have the space to mature 150,000 cheeses in our stores.
In Grisignano di Zocco (Vicenza) there is room for another
30,000.
|
|
In association with member dairies, AGRIFORM has been producing,
maturing and selling typical cheeses since 1980.
Besides producing for the dairy companies, we also make Grana
Padano and Monte Veronese directly at our own cheese dairy located
at Borgochiesanuova (Verona) in the green valleys of Lessinia.
|
The shape our quality takes
|
We have made quality our keyword.
Always taking care to ensure that our products are typical,
we aim to recover the flavours of the past, in contrast to the
standardisation of taste imposed by multinational companies.
Proof of this comes with the wide range of Italian cheeses bearing
the PDO label (Denomination of Protected Origin) which safeguards
the name of typical cheeses.
Our main product is Grana Padano, from which we select the Stravecchio
Oro del Tempo (Extra-old Gold), a cheese with an unmistakably
rich
|
|
flavour which is matured for a minimum
of 20 months.
Our careful attention to quality is also demonstrated by the
Certification of the Agriform Quality System’s conformity
to UNI EN ISO 9002 regulations,
issued by the CSQA in Thiene.
We would like to invite you therefore to discover the unmistakable
flavour of our cheeses, guaranteed by years of experience, by
our craftsmanlike approach and constant research aimed at ensuring
quality for our clients….under all circumstances.
|
This is the gold that makes the difference
|
Not all cheeses of the same type have
the same taste.
AGRIFORM invites you to sample the authentic flavours of the
past by privileging the Oro del Tempo line, a range of selected
cheeses matured for a long time. These represent the best of
the Italian cheese tradition, exclusively for you.
