Product/Service Highlights

ENZO Olive Oil Company/P-R Farms, Inc.

The Ricchiuti family story begins with a voyage from Vincenzo Ricchiuti's native Italy to America in 1914. Vincenzo knew that diversification would be key to long term success when he planted the first family acreage with grapes and figs. Benefited by his father's wisdom, Pat Ricchiuti began his career as a grower, packer, shipper after returning home from serving his country in 1946. With the help of his wife, Frances, they continued to diversify by planting plums and cotton thus marking the beginning of the newly founded P-R Farms in 1956. In 1973, Pat, Frances, and their son Patrick Ricchiuti oversaw the construction of a new state-of-the-art cold storage and packinghouse on the corner of Shepherd and Willow avenues in Clovis, California. The P-R Farms label quickly become known worldwide for premium quality almonds and olives. Today, the Ricchiuti Family Farms operation also includes a retail store - Bella Frutta, an almond hulling and processing plant in Madera, California, and a newly completed olive oil milling facility that produces and bottles extra virgin organic olive oil under the label ENZO. As they look to the future, Patrick and son Vincent Ricchiuti remain dedicated to carrying on the family legacy of being agricultural business leaders.
