The story
Founded in 1995 in Vidracco (TO), Compagnia dei Caraibi began as an importer of beverages and spirits and progressively expanded into selection, distribution and creation of its own labels. With roots in a historic family of wine producers and merchants, the company has grown its portfolio to include hundreds of listings from dozens of countries and the direct production of several spirits lines.
Production philosophy
The company describes itself as a "merchant of goods and ideas": it prioritizes research, quality and the enhancement of traditions and old recipes, while promoting sustainability and social responsibility practices. It is involved in environmental and cultural initiatives and has undertaken ESG certification and reporting processes.
Territory
