More Than a Farm A Family Promise

From a Small Plot to Feeding Thousands

Agreco began in 2011 on a 4-hectare family plot in the rolling hills of the countryside. Founders Marcus and Elena Rossi had a simple, stubborn belief: that the food you feed your family should be grown the same way you’d grow it yourself — with patience, care, and zero shortcuts.

What started as weekend markets and handwritten delivery notes grew, season by season, into a network of farms, a committed team of growers, and a supply chain that today reaches thousands of homes, restaurants, and retailers who share the same values.

“We never wanted to be the biggest farm. We wanted to be the one you could trust. Fourteen years later, that’s still the only metric that matters to us.”

— Marcus Rossi, Co-Founder & Head Farmer

Growing Through the Years

The First Seeds

Marcus and Elena plant their first certified organic vegetable beds on the family property in Emilia, Italy. Every weekend, they sell at the local market — selling out by 9am every single time.

2015

First Farm Partnership & Wholesales

Agreco partners with three neighboring farms to expand the range of produce available. The cooperative model is born — local growers, shared standards, one trusted name.
2020

USDA & EU Organic Certified

After years of rigorous practice, Agreco receives full organic certification across all partner farms — a milestone that opens doors to wholesale retail partnerships and international buyers.
