Core Business

We produce citrus essential oils and juices for food and beverage, fragrances and cosmetics industry

We have been producing essential oils and citrus juices exclusively for the international B2B market since 1922. The unwavering passion with which Francesco Misitano di Lorenzo and Francesco Stracuzzi di Rosario first founded the Company has been handed down through successive generations of entrepreneurs of the Misitano and Stracuzzi families, who have faced the most complex challenges with a spirit of sacrifice and a strategic vision. Ever focused on global market developments and on the needs of customers, the Company has always invested in the latest technological innovations, while convinced that human capital remains its most valuable asset.

Over the years, we have become a market leader in our industry, acquiring thousands of customers around the world. Our factories are located in Sicily, in Santa Teresa di Riva and Furci Siculo, in the province of Messina. We are proud of our Sicilian origins and of the close bond we have established with our land. From the most precious citrus cultivars, we obtain essential oils and juices of extraordinary quality, encompassing all the colours and aromas of Sicily in every drop.

Our citrus essential oils are highly appreciated at the international level and are applied in a variety of fields, including food and drink, perfumes and fragrances, cosmetics and aromatherapy. Ever reliable and dynamic, we use nothing but the very best raw materials to produce essential oils of the highest quality. We offer 100% pure, natural products, as well as specialities tailored to the needs of our customers.

Our juices come from Sicily’s best citrus fruits, sourced carefully in terms of assessing our suppliers’ quality, ethics and sustainability. Our most popular products are natural or concentrated Lemon, Sweet Orange and Red Orange juices, both conventional and organic, but we can rapidly produce any juice according to specific customer needs, while always guaranteeing the highest quality levels. Our main target markets are the food and beverage, fragrances and cosmetics industry.

Our manufacturing processes combine a century old experience with the most innovative modern technologies. Our in-house R&D division adds value to our offering by continuously improving processes, product specifications and the quality of our end products. We follow strict control protocols and have a modern testing laboratory managed by experienced and competent technical staff. Our mission is to ensure the satisfaction of our customers, whether they are large multinationals requiring tonnes of products or small businesses that only need them in small quantities.
