Caseificio Fiordilatte

What Caseificio Fiordilatte does

Caseificio Fiordilatte is an artisan dairy producer operating in Milan under the legal entity Fiordilatte Italia S.r.l., founded in 2012 by Alessio Mogliani. The company produces fresh Italian cheeses using traditional pasta filata (stretched-curd) techniques, processing milk delivered daily from selected Italian farms into the same-day product. Its core range includes STG-certified mozzarella, burrata, stracciatella, ricotta, caciocavallo, scamorza, primo sale, robiola, and squacquerone, alongside fresh dairy desserts (yogurt, panna cotta, tiramisù) and complementary grocery items distributed through its e-commerce site. Production and retail run from a single store in the Sempione district of Milan (Via Mac Mahon 12); the registered office sits in Cinisello Balsamo (MI). The capital base is €10,000 i.v. and the operation employs five people, consistent with a founder-led artisan S.r.l. without institutional backing.

The company runs a multi-channel go-to-market combining a physical retail/production store, a direct-to-consumer e-commerce platform (shop.fiordilattemilano.it), and a B2B supply arm serving HORECA clients. Named B2B customers include national and premium accounts such as Autogrill, Lavazza's Milan Flagship Store, Sadler, BASE Milano, and Pescaria, plus listings on third-party specialty grocery marketplaces (Cortilia, Alveare che dice sì). Distribution outside Milan relies on third-party courier logistics; digital presence includes Instagram, Facebook, and Tripadvisor.

Positioning rests on craftsmanship and Italian provenance: STG certification on the mozzarella line provides a regulated third-party provenance claim, and the retail experience is built around traceability and direct producer-consumer contact. There is no evidence of proprietary technology, automation, or AI/ML systems; the operating model is fundamentally a traditional food manufacturing and retail operation.

Direct peers

• Casearia Andria: Specialist Italian mozzarella and pasta filata producer, with own-brand and private-label programs sold through Italian retail and food service. Highly comparable to Fiordilatte on product category, though primarily Southern Italian in origin and distribution.
• Fattorie Garofalo: Italian buffalo mozzarella specialist with a full portfolio of fresh pasta filata cheeses including burrata, stracciatella, and ricotta. Directly comparable to Fiordilatte as a vertically integrated mozzarella producer serving both retail and HORECA, though materially larger and operating nationally.
• Caseificio Longo: Artisan Italian producer of mozzarella, burrata, and ricotta serving both retail and HORECA. Comparable to Fiordilatte as a small-scale, hand-crafted pasta filata manufacturer with a similar product portfolio and customer base.

Broad incumbents

• Granarolo: One of Italy's largest dairy groups, producing milk, mozzarella, yogurt, and other dairy products for retail and HORECA nationwide. Comparable as a mozzarella and dairy competitor with overlapping HORECA distribution, but operating at a totally different scale with a broad portfolio.
• Latteria Soresina: Large Italian dairy cooperative producing a wide range of cheeses (including fresh pasta filata) and milk products for national retail and food service. Comparable as a multi-product dairy producer with an Italian distribution footprint, though vastly larger and more industrial in scale than Fiordilatte.
• Galbani (Lactalis Italia): Mass-market Italian cheese brand owned by Lactalis, offering mozzarella, ricotta, and other pasta filata products across all major Italian retailers. Comparable as a mozzarella competitor in the same category, but positioned at the value/premium-mass end rather than the artisanal segment where Fiordilatte competes.
• Biraghi: Italian dairy company producing a wide range of cheeses, including fresh pasta filata, distributed nationally through retail and food service. Comparable on product overlap, particularly in mozzarella and fresh cheeses, but at a much larger scale with broad industrial distribution.
• Vallelata (Lactalis): Italian mozzarella brand owned by Lactalis, focused on fresh and processed pasta filata cheeses distributed nationally. Comparable on product category and retail-HORECA channels, but with industrial scale and pricing rather than an artisanal proposition.

Regional players

• Latteria Merano: South Tyrolean dairy producing premium milk, yogurt, and specialty cheeses with a strong artisan / local provenance positioning. Comparable to Fiordilatte in articulating a short-supply-chain, regional-quality story, though focused on northern mountain dairy rather than southern-style pasta filata.
• Sorrentina: Campania-based producer of buffalo mozzarella and other pasta filata cheeses, primarily serving central-southern Italy. Comparable to Fiordilatte as a specialty mozzarella producer, but geographically anchored in the buffalo mozzarella heartland rather than northern Italy.
