OUR VISION

“I cannot look at a tree leaf without
being overwhelmed by the universe”

VICTOR HUGO

Preserving and handing down the commons


Since as far back as 1780, Romanengo has always based its growth on making the most of natural raw ingredients such as fruit, plants and flowers, through the hands of its artisans and its recipes.

These are true common goods that we wish to keep handing down, because we believe they are still relevant today and offer a valid alternative for the world we live in.

Balance between production and consumption

We believe this world must rediscover a better balance between an exacerbated production system and a production and consumption model that is more inclusive of universal values such as handmade, short supply chains, quality, and time.

Genoa: our roots

Romanengo has been shaped by its geographical position, and its history is intertwined with that of its city, Genoa, whose fortunes have been dictated by its location, facing the sea and resting against valleys and hills rich in woodland.

It is in this land that we find a great variety of fruits, such as chinotto and orange, and of flowers, such as rose and violet, together with what merchants brought back from their long voyages: recipes and spices.

The Genoese land has therefore profoundly shaped our savoir-faire and our traditions: a long and fruitful relationship between history and geography, to be preserved in its entirety.

Reconnect with nature

Our artisans, "guardians" of this culture, pass on the beauty, diversity, and health benefits of a nature that is now suffocated and increasingly unknown to humankind. We therefore wish to restore the connection with nature and biodiversity in our workshops.

OUR REASON FOR BEING

Therefore, we will grow by preserving and enhancing our artisan skills, which base innovation on experience, and whose ultimate goal is a greater understanding of nature and our production values. This is a great challenge in our contemporary world; this is our philosophy; this is our raison d'être.

Nature preserved in a gesture.
