The Francoli family began distilling in 1875 in the village of Campodolcino in the mountains above Lake Como.

They founded their distillery in Piemonte in 1951. Over the years, by creating new companies and acquiring existing ones, they formed the Francoli Group (Gruppo Francoli).

Today, Gruppo Francoli is an active producer and distributor of grappa, liqueurs, distillates, wines, dried ham (prosciutto) and electrical energy.

Respecting and safeguarding the environment has always been of fundamental importance to the Francoli family. Distillerie Francoli was the first grappa distillery to officially have Zero Impact® on the environment.
