Already being an adult with a settled life in Italy, at one point, I decided to radically change everything and move to live in London. Naturally, things weren’t so easy at the beginning, living in a country without friends, without family, and with limited spoken English. But soon, I found myself and became a successful trader in the Italian markets.
My activities have always been linked to Italian traditional culture and cuisine, and one day fate brought me into contact with a man who eventually became my business partner, friend, and family member. Carlo Caporicci, the founder and owner of San Pietro a Pettine, passed on his love and passion for truffles to me.
Having started the truffle business from scratch, I managed to establish relationships with over 200 customers, from small restaurants to large groups and Michelin-starred restaurants, from Italian delis to famous British department stores. But despite that, there are no small or unimportant customers for The Fine Truffle.
