- Company Overview
- Leader in the Italian food retail sector since 1957, Esselunga operates over 170 superstores and supermarkets in Lombardy, Tuscany, Emilia-Romagna, Piedmont, Veneto, Liguria and Lazio. All shops are served by its production, machining and distribution centers located at Limito di Pioltello (MI), Parma, Biandrate (NO) and Sesto Fiorentino (FI). The chains of Esserbella perfumeries and Bar Atlantic are also part of Esselunga. The history of Esselunga began in Milan in 1957, with the opening of the very first supermarket in Italy. Today, the Group employs around 25,000 people, has a turnover of €8.4 billion and 5.5 million loyal customers. The company constantly works towards product innovation, environmental protection and consumer protection. Producer as well as retailer, Esselunga is a real “food company”, whose main strengths are its fresh products and those produced in its production plants. Esselunga combines quality ingredients, the craftmanship of its laboratories’ employees, attention to freshness as well as waste reduction. All that without forgetting the centrality of convenience: we always guarantee the best quality at the lowest price. Innovation, with an eye to tradition, has always been a core strategy of Esselunga, which has not only continuously invested in studying solutions for sustainable development, but is also socially devoted to the communities it operates in. The company is, in fact, involved in many activities concerning culture, social issues, health and education.
