Asiago Food

What Asiago Food does

Asiago Food S.p.A. is an Italian frozen food manufacturer headquartered in Veggiano, province of Padua (Veneto), operating with 11-50 employees. The company produces and distributes a portfolio of frozen and dried natural products organized into four categories: wild and cultivated mushrooms (porcini, champignon, finferli), frozen berries and fruits processed with the proprietary SANAFRUTTA™ sanitization technology, frozen vegetables (asparagus, artichokes, peppers, zucchini, eggplant), and frozen ready meals (veloutés, soups, veggie burgers, crêpe lasagnas, battered vegetables). Its core technology is Individually Quick Frozen (IQF) processing combined with the in-house SANAFRUTTA™ process, developed with Stazione Sperimentale di Parma and IZSVe Istituto Zooprofilattico Sperimentale delle Venezie, which reduces viral and contaminant load in frozen forest fruits while preserving organoleptic characteristics.

The company operates a dual go-to-market: a retail channel distributing through 50+ Italian supermarket banners including Alì, Carrefour, Conad, Esselunga, Metro, Despar, Iperal, and Basko; and a dedicated foodservice/HoReCa channel (Per la ristorazione) serving restaurants, hotels, and catering operators. An industrial food-sector segment also sources bulk ingredients from Asiago Food under full traceability. The revenue model is one-time product sales (B2B and B2C) with no usage-based or subscription pricing disclosed. Credentials include BRCGS Issue 9, IFS Food Version 8, and EU Organic Regulation 848/2018 certifications, positioning the company for institutional procurement. The brand draws heritage positioning from the Asiago Plateau, and a sub-brand (Bosco Reale) targets premium porcini mushrooms. Marketing is content-led through a bilingual Italian/English website, a Magazine, a Recipes section, and Instagram — indicating ambition to attract international demand alongside its dominant Italian retail base.
