Waiting for EXPO
A few months after the start of the
event, there is great expectation from
the company. “If only 5 million people
arrived in Milan - says Zoratti - against
the 20 expected by the organizers, it
would mean a significant increase in
work for us. We just have to see what
happens in the days of the Salone del
Mobile. Even now we are planning to
take advantage of the opportunities
offered by this event.”

Cheese Specialists
The dairy products, particularly
those typical from Valtellina, are the
highlight of the offer of Maggengo
Valtellina.
It can certainly be said to be unusual
path followed by Maggengo Valtellina,
a company founded in 1972 in the
province of Sondrio, as is easily guessed
from the name. In that year Antonio
Gusman, who still runs the company
with his sons, he decided to radically
change life, abandoning the work on a
farm with dairy production to go into
business on cheese, who knew. The
next step was to detect a grocery store
- still operational - where, in addition to
the sale of local products, is dedicated to
the maturation of some types of cheese.
The second took place in 2000, with the
arrival of the second generation. Began
in that year, the activities of wholesalers
of cheese.
With the entry into CIC (in 2006) a new
phase begins - the third - for Maggengo
Valtellina, which began to serve the
channel catering. While remaining true
to its specialization in dairy and typical
products of Valtellina, can count on the
experience of CIC in the selection of
products allowed the company to offer
to restaurateurs as a supplier for a full
range of food and non. “The entry in
CIC - tells Antonio Gusman company
administrator - was not only important
because it allowed us to extend our
business, but because it offers us
the opportunity to debate with our
colleagues with different specializations
and from other areas of Italy. That’s
why we never miss the opportunities to
meet.”
Currently Maggengo Valtellina serves
restaurants in Valtellina and in the area
of Upper Lake Como (Como side), while
the activity of wholesaler of cheese
goes up to the province north of Milan.
“Apart from Sondrio - continues - which
is for us the most important, we work
continuously throughout the year, in
Valtellina the intensity of our activities
follows the trend of tourism; two peaks,
which have different characteristics.
The summer is a little ‘longer, especially
with regard to the area of the lake,
where, if time remains good, the season
extends until autumn.”
A streamlined, with a strong presence
of the family in all functions keys, offers
Maggengo Valtellina sufficient flexibility
to better manage periods longer and
less intense.
Deliveries? Just by private.
The guests of the restaurant cannot be
simple to treat. You have to be flexible
to adapt to the needs of the chefs. For
this reason Maggengo Valtellina prefer
independently manage the phase
of delivery, which is easier when it
establishes a personal relationship and
continuing with the attendant. “The
technology - explains Gusman - helps
in orders, which is done via tablet and
sent directly to the warehouse. This
allowed us to shorten delivery times
and simplify the administrative and
commercial management.”
