The very short supply chain

Bio Orto directly follows every phase of the farming, the food processing and the distribution of the products, with an approach which comes from the natural symbiosis between industrial craftsmanship and a glocal positioning.

The fresh vegetables are Bio Orto’s beating heart. With care, dedication and in harmony with the environment, every product is sown and cultivated with an organic method in the company’s fields, placed on the slopes of the Gargano.

The fresh vegetables

It is from the majority of these vegetables that the Bio Orto processed foods come from. Oils, condiments, preserved foods, sauces, pesto, spreads and preserved in oil foods, high quality products that are the natural result of the company’s passion for the land and its fruits, the desire to offer the authentic flavours of organic farming and a processing of excellence which allows Bio Orto to serve quality products that enhance the fragrances and flavours of the land of Puglia.
