The story begins in 1931 when Gaetano Adelfio left Palermo to move to Marzamemi, a small fishing village famous for its bluefin tuna fishing. Shortly thereafter, the bluefin tuna processing company was founded. In the 1970s, his son Francesco decided to take over the annual production of bluefin tuna and bluefin tuna in Marzamemi. Today, the company, led by the founder's grandson, who bears the same name, continues to produce bluefin tuna according to tradition in the Marzamemi plant, guaranteeing provenance, product quality, and compliance with EU environmental sustainability quotas.
