The Capittini rice factory was founded in 1881 by Giuseppe Capittini.
In the early years, activities were limited to milling and the production of seed oil, sold in the locally area.
The Capittini brothers (Pietro, Valentino and Livio) then began rice hulling during the second world war.
Over the years, as the demand for rice increased, the technique of rice hulling was further improved, allowing the Capittini rice factory to achieve a highly-esteemed quality rice. Today, with the fifth generation, the members of the Capittini rice factory are able to offer their customers a selected product which is guaranteed in terms of freshness and quality (dyes and preservatives are never used), thanks to the use of sofisticated machinery and advanced technologies.
