We’re Alessandro and Marco, two brothers from Arezzo, a Tuscan gem where the land dictates the menu.
Our hometown is a place of hearty, rustic flavours—rich pappardelle with wild boar, succulent Chianina steaks, and ancient grains.
But the true soul of every dish, the liquid gold, was always the vibrant, freshly pressed extra virgin olive oil.
Our love for food was born in our family kitchen, watching our mother and grandmother transform simple ingredients into feasts with unwavering passion.
They taught us that authentic flavour starts with respect for the land and that love is the most important ingredient of all.
This warmth and dedication guided our journey, from our first jobs as waiters to the pride of owning our own restaurants.
Even our decades spent in logistics and transport were fuelled by a mission to connect people with quality they could trust.
Living in London, we yearned for that true taste of home.
The olive oils we found just didn’t have the peppery, fragrant character we grew up with; they lacked soul.
This sparked our dream.
After searching our homeland, we discovered Frantoio Franci in the Val d’Orcia, a family whose dedication to crafting exceptional, healthy olive oil mirrored our own values.
F&R Imports is the culmination of our life’s work: a dream to bring a drop of authentic, vibrant Tuscany from our family’s table to yours.
It’s more than just fine products; it’s our story.
