Our Tomarchio beverages not only tell the story of the tastes and scents of Sicily, but are also the result of important supply chain projects initiated with the entire citrus sector of the island.
From the collaboration with the Citrus Productive District and the main protection consortia (Arancia Rossa di Sicilia IGP, Limone di Siracusa IGP, Arancia di Ribera DOP) we started a path of requalification and specialization of the offer that led, in 2016, to the birth of an entire line of carbonated drinks with organic citrus juices IGP and DOP in order to ensure the traceability of the fruits used and to enhance the citrus heritage of the Island.
A system strategy that has strengthened and continues to strengthen every day the sense of belonging to the territory, enhances cooperation between all stakeholders in the supply chain and enhances the Sicilian citrus heritage by exporting it worldwide.
All our growers are located within a 100 KM radius from our plant – competence and proximity are key values for our production. The fruits are mostly hand-picked even today, using classic citrus scissors. The citrus fruits are processed the same day they are picked. Washed and then squeezed. The juice is concentrated and frozen. In the process, the essential oils are recovered to be reused in the preparation of the drinks to enrich their taste and aroma.
Since 1920 our drinks are among the favorites in Sicily because they best represent the true and authentic taste of this wonderful island. They are prepared, now as in the past, using simple and genuine ingredients so as not to alter their unique and incomparable taste over time. Only the juices of the best freshly squeezed citrus fruits ripened in the hot Sicilian sun, the water coming from the slopes of Etna, rich in minerals with an inimitable taste, and finally an artisan production respecting the processing method jealously handed down for 100 years and three generations.
Today Sicily, the beating heart of the company, continues to be the territory from where raw materials come from in a short chain and zero km.
With a production of 40 million bottles, we reach over 1,400,000 families of Sicilian consumers, not counting the new “non-Sicilian” families in Italy and around the world who have been conquered by the goodness of our drinks.
