HISTORY

NOTHING HAPPENS BY CHANCE…

In the late 1980s, shares of a major citrus company were acquired, where President Mino Liotti served as General Manager for years. The extensive work carried out in symbiosis with the production manager of that facility ignited Mino Liotti’s passion for lemons and their derivatives, allowing him to become a commercial expert and develop excellent production and technical knowledge. Around that time, thanks to increasingly in-depth studies and knowledge of the properties of lemon, the therapeutic capacities of this citrus fruit and its relatives (bergamot, orange, clementine, tangerine), which Calabria produces, became widely known; the beneficial characteristics of these fruits fostered an increase in their consumption.

With the evident and constant collaboration of his wife Sondra, on June 27, 1994, with an order destined for Sweden, the first productions of lemon juice packaged in plastic “limoncini” began. Much ground was quickly covered in discovering new markets, and even today, the road ahead has no limits, in full respect of the innate entrepreneurial spirit that has always distinguished the founder. Over these thirty years, the evolutions have been endless; in 1998, LIOTTI S.p.A. branched off, and a new and important production facility was immediately started, with work concluding in 2001. All aesthetic aspects of the company were carefully considered with a particular architectural design that saw the factory roof built in an arch like a church, with a patio and tall trees in the center. The company, surrounded by well-kept greenery, covers approximately 15,000 square meters, of which about 4,000 square meters are covered.

One of the main feature of Mino Liotti is the foresight and since the first of 90s he exploited the excetional opportunity to surrender the shares of that company to go on his own with productions at last limited with the lemon juice only.

At the turn of those years, thanks to the studies and knowledges even more deep about lemon proprieties the therapeutic abilities of the lemon and its relatives (bergamot, orange, clementine, mandarine) of which Calabria is producer spread favoring the increasing of consumptions. With the evident and constant cooperation of the wife Sondra the 27 of June in 1993, with an order for Sweden, the first production of lemon juice packaged in plastic lime was started. A long way has been covered quickly to the discover of new markets and nowaday the way to cover doesn’t have horizons, respecting the imprenditorial spirit that always contradistinguish Mino Liotti. In the course of this thirty years the evolutions have been endless; In 1998 LIOTTI S.p.A. has born and a new and more important factory gave course which works have been concluded in 2001. The whole Company estethic aspects have been cared very deeply with a particular architecture that realize the roof of the shed arched like a church and with a patio with tall trees in the centre. The Company, rounded by well cared green, has a superfice of 15.000 Mq of which 4.000 mq closed.
