Producer history ILLVA Saronno

Founded by the Reina family and operating as a group engaged in the production and marketing of alcoholic beverages, ILLVA Saronno has grown from a local producer to an international group based in Saronno (VA). The parent company Illva Saronno Holding S.p.A. is wholly owned by the Reina family; the group operates across multiple business lines including spirits, wines, semi-finished products for gelato and bakery. Among the acquisitions and developments cited in the sources: the inclusion of historic brands in the portfolio (e.g. Marsala Florio acquired in the 1990s) and the announcement of recent acquisitions such as Averna and Zedda Piras (communication of 18 December 2025, closing expected in the first half of 2026).

Production philosophy

To enhance and promote Italian culture and lifestyle through iconic brands, diversify the offering (liqueurs, wines, food ingredients) and support international expansion while maintaining the family tradition.

Territory
