What Moris does
Moris (legal entity Allevamento Moris S.S. Agricola di Morisiasco Franco e Figli) is a privately held, family-owned Italian agricultural company headquartered in Caraglio, in the province of Cuneo, Piedmont. It operates a vertically integrated buffalo dairy and meat operation built on a herd of approximately 1,200 Mediterranean Italian buffaloes and 200 hectares of cultivated land that supplies the animals' forage. The Morisiasco family controls the entire chain from cultivation and animal husbandry through to processing and retail, under a "short, controlled supply chain" model with no antibiotics, hormones, or industrial feed.
The product portfolio spans twelve categories centered on buffalo-milk mozzarella and including fresh cheeses (ricotta, stracciatella, burrata), aged stretched-curd and aged buffalo cheeses, fresh and processed buffalo meat, salamis, jarred cooked-meat sauces, buffalo milk and butter, hazelnut desserts, buffalo-milk gelato, and agricultural beer. Distribution is entirely direct-to-consumer through nine company-owned retail stores across Piedmont and Liguria (Caraglio, Trinità, Cuneo, Torino, Rivalta, Nichelino, Sanremo, Savona, Genova) plus an on-site farm store at headquarters. Marketing is conducted via the fattoriamoris.it website, Facebook, Instagram, and an email newsletter offering a 10% discount coupon.
The business model is a single one-time-purchase transaction stream across dairy, meat, and ancillary specialty goods, sold predominantly at retail price points with no disclosed subscription, wholesale, or HORECA revenue. The company is family-controlled with 1–10 employees, no external institutional investors, no funding rounds, no disclosed revenue, and no patents, trademarks, certifications, or partnerships on record. Its stated differentiators are 100% Piedmontese production, full vertical integration, and a self-described "holistic agricultural method" that treats the farm as a self-sufficient ecosystem.
