A venerable company steeped in tradition
With the passing of time, some places become points of reference for gastronomical traditions that are unique and irreplaceable. It's as though history chooses and assigns to these places the solemn responsibility of transforming shapes, flavors and aromas into goods. The collection of all these places is what brings about the best in the Italian food industry through thousands of old specialties. One of these regional "flavorsmiths" is located in Genova Pontedecimo. We are referring to the antique milling plant of the Grondona family, which started to supply cookies and pastries to the finest bakeries and pastry shops in town in the early 1900s.

The recipes of Grandpa Orlando
Grandpa Orlando Grondona meticulously jotted down in a black-covered notebook the recipes of cakes and cookies of old Genoa. The high quality and tradition of the Grondona's products have not been altered by the passage of time. This is true of the seventies, when its products were first offered outside the region of Liguria and in the mid eighties, when state-of-the-art technology was introduced in a new manufacturing plant in response to an ever-increasing market demand. These innovations were aimed at keeping up with today's fast-paced and modern times, and not at compromising the home-style characteristics of Grondona's baked goods.

High quality, high level products
There is a reason that makes Grondona a unique company. Grondona gambled on keeping together a true family-run business - one where the actual owners are mixing the flour - with a sophisticated technological industry, a homemade approach to craftsmanship and a hefty presence in product distribution. Grondona can take pride in having won this gamble a hundred times over.

Distinctive products
Starting from Regional recipes Grondona produce typical products that can't be found just anywhere. It is for this reason that specialties from Genoa and, more generally, from Liguria, plain yet rich in taste and ingredients, have gained the appreciation of a large number of connoisseurs, well beyond the locale of their origin. The constant attention to detail in the mouthwatering recipes, the simple processing and the originality in their taste combine to produce a truly unique and incomparable assortment of products.
