Alcisa

Alcisa S.p.A. is one of the leading companies in the production of Mortadella di Bologna PGI, the most representative Bolognese gastronomic product worldwide.

It was founded in 1946 in Bologna, in a small workshop on Via Riva Reno, equipped with a pioneering wood-burning stove for cooking Mortadella. The dream was to revive an ancient Bolognese recipe for the production of the salami that symbolizes the gastronomic tradition of the city. Personal experiences and the post-war environment in Bologna strongly influenced that initial venture, transforming it into the important industrial reality it is today.

The company's offerings include a complete and varied range of aged hams, cooked hams, salamis, and other typical Italian deli specialties such as coppa, pancetta, zampone, and cotechino.

During Mortadella Please, the International Festival of Mortadella held in early October in Zola Predosa, guided tours of the company are organized. Currently, company visits are suspended because the company is undergoing renovations.
