Producer Info: From the serene countryside of Arsiero in Veneto, Italy, to the hustle and bustle of Melbourne, a young Ivo Borgo arrived on the shores of Australia in 1952. Armed with his experience in a Melbourne smallgoods company, and the time-honoured salami making techniques, Ivo and his wife Antonietta opened their first butcher shop in Melbourne in 1958.

Keeping with family tradition, Ivo’s two sons Odino and Luigi entered the family business back in the late 1970s, with two of his daughters Diana and Sonia also joining the business in the 1990s.  It is now run by Luigi, who purchased the business from his parents in 2006 to continue the tradition.  Luigi now with his son, Anthony, makes it three generations.   

Today Borgo Salumi has expanded its operation and manufactures a wide range of delectable Italian delicacies such as Prosciutto Borgo, Mortadella, Coppa, Pancetta, Oven Baked Hams, Italian Style Sausages, Pure Pork Sopressa and Salami.
