Our story

Born in Bologna, delivered to your door

Bottega Italiana was founded in 1987 by the Ricci family - a small import business that started with a single crate of olive oil and a belief that great food deserves no borders.

Today we work with small producers across Italy and choose products we'd proudly serve at home. No mass production. No gimmicks.
