Connecting Flavors. Bridging Markets.
From Italy to the world, and from the world to your table.
Our History & Values
Gretal was born from the belief that food is more than a commodity – it is culture, identity, and a bridge between people. From the very beginning, we have understood that international food trade is not only about products, but about trust, relationships, and long-term vision.
Today, we work closely with carefully selected producers across Europe and beyond, bringing authentic flavors to Italy while proudly exporting the excellence of Made in Italy worldwide. Our values guide us every day: Certified Quality, Transparency, Continuous Innovation, and Environmental Sustainability.
We believe that food is a universal language, and Gretal is the bridge that connects tradition and the future.
Certifications & Quality Standards
Quality is our promise, and certification is our guarantee. At Gretal, we work exclusively with suppliers and products that meet the strictest international standards: from European food safety regulations to Halal and Kosher certifications, and sustainable organic production.
Every batch we import or export is fully traceable, tested, and backed by official compliance documents, ensuring our partners receive products that are both safe and competitive in the global market.
