Revolutionising the specialist Italian food wholesale market in the UK

As the first specialist Italian wholesaler to create a trade-only commerce site, Salvo 1968 is changing the way Italian-style restaurants and shops are buying their supplies and offering them a flexibility that was not previously available.

This forward-thinking company’s investment in state of the art e-commerce technology makes ordering easy, simplifies account management, allows customers to view previous orders and to create individual shopping lists for easy re-ordering.

The best in Italian food

Salvo 1968 customers can buy a myriad of both traditional and niche products, from pasta, cheeses, premium cold meats, coffee and pizza flour, to specialist tinned fruit and fresh sauces. With a long tradition of offering fantastic cheeses, charcuterie and pastas, Salvo1968 also offers an exclusive range of seasonal goods such as panettone, panforte, and torrone.

All suppliers to Salvo 1968 are BRC accredited.


Always offering more to customers

As British palates have grown ever more adventurous, restaurants, delis and cafes have seen demand soar for more specialist Italian goods, from the best pesto and the most interesting filled pasta, to premium hams and fine Italian cheeses.

In order to meet increased demand, in 2011 Salvo merged with leading food importer Rondanini and became Salvo1968 – bigger, better and with even more to offer. The move to enable online ordering, means that retailers and restaurateurs now have access to Salvo1968’s specialist Italian products 24/7 online.

Many of the products available to buy at Salvo1968.co.uk are excusive to Salvo1968 in the UK. All products are competitively priced, and telephone and email customer support are available during office hours.
