He presented his idea to Golfera, a company renowned for its commitment to quality and tradition, leading to the development of this unique salami.

During the official launch in 1990, it won the Oscar for Innovation at Cibus, a prestigious international food exhibition. Today, Golfetta remains Italy’s best-selling salami.
