The history of Rovagnati began in 1952 in Byassono (now the province of Monza and Brianz), where Angelo Ferruchcio Rovanyata produced oil and cheeses for wholesale trade. His son Paolo was engaged in the delivery of goods on a bicycle until I realized that it was necessary to reprofile production from milk to sausage. Their main product was boiled ham, which was then considered the food of the poor.
In 1968, Paolo took over the management of the company and began to turn it from family business into an international brand. In the next decades, its intuition helped the company growing, turning it into one of the largest companies in the Sausage Products in Italy and the world, having reached a turnover of more than 300 million euros per year and 1,200 employees in 20 countries.
In the 1980s, he developed a “perfect boiled ham”, calling it Gran Biscotto and supply it with a branded marking on the crust, as only the Parm Consortium did before. The commercials with the participation of the most popular telephone T -shirt Bongjorno soon made Gran Biscotto famous throughout Italy.
Rovagnati continues to grow, releasing more than 20 different types of boiled ham, expanding the structure of production and implementing increasingly more advanced systems.
After the death of Paolo in 2008 at the age of 64, in 2010, the company moved to the leadership of the Brothers Ferruchacio and Lorenzo, reached the international level and began to export its products to various countries, including France, Belgium, Germany, Ireland and the USA.
Rovagnati also acquired Berkel, the historical brand of slisers, and Pineider, Italian printing house. In 2020, opened a branch in the USA. In recent years, the company was ruled by the deceased Lorenzo.
