Company’s history
1960Siracusa 1960, Via Milano 6. This is when Luciano Cappuccio began his activity in the food supply industry. The founder, who would have turned 100 yo this year, laid the foundations of the project that still today his successors continue to carry out. Much has changed since then but not the passion with which we continue to run our company.- 1990Thirty years later, the heirs Roberto and Carmelo Cappuccio, together with their partners Andrea Catanzaro and Federico Bellofiore, founded the B&C Commercial Union, a company that expands its business in the large-scale distribution and Normal Trade industry. From a small family business, B&C became the exclusive distributor of some of the most famous food brands in Italy, consolidating itself as a primary reality in eastern Sicily.
