Salvatore Pollastrini founded the first company in Italy specializing in canning sardines in 1889. In the 1950s, the Sepe family took over and also started canning spicy and tomato sardines, according to a typical family recipe. Today, production is concentrated in the modern factory located in the industrial area of Anzio, while respecting the ancient recipes passed down from generation to generation. Fishing continues to be carried out with the use of lamps, which allows fish to be caught intact and without suffering.
