Il Nutrimento srl

What Il Nutrimento srl does

Il Nutrimento srl is an Italian contract manufacturer (private-label co-packer) of organic and plant-based food products, founded in 1992 and operating from a single facility in Calenzano, near Florence. The company produces pasta sauces, pesto, vegetable creams, flavored oils, hummus, vegetable mayonnaise, and ethnic-style dips and sauces on behalf of Italian organic brands including Probios, Morga, Fumaiolo, Iris, Almaverde Bio, and Germinal. Production runs at a stated capacity of approximately 4,000 jars per hour, and the site operates under BIO (organic) and IFS Food quality certifications that are prerequisites for listing at major European organic retailers.

The business model is B2B contract manufacturing: Il Nutrimento develops and produces recipes under its clients' brands, monetizing through unit-volume pricing on finished jars rather than through its own consumer brand. Go-to-market is anchored on long-tail relationships with Italian organic distributors and a trilingual (IT/EN/DE) web presence aimed at export-oriented buyers. The company is privately held, has approximately nine employees, and relocated from Cremosano to Calenzano in 2015 to consolidate production.

Operationally, the firm differentiates on certified-organic formulation expertise accumulated over three decades, with recent portfolio additions into plant-based categories (hummus, vegetable mayo, ethnic dips) signaling a defensive repositioning around vegan/flexitarian retail demand. No external funding, M&A activity, or AI/automation initiatives are disclosed in the available data, and the company does not disclose revenue.
