Leoni Randolfo:
porchetta producers
in Ariccia since 1940
Leoni Randolfo is the result of eighty years of precise choices by a family that transformed an artisanal intuition into a production model recognized by international large-scale retail, without ever changing the product, the choices, or the values that are its soul.
Porchetta di Ariccia PGI, a supply chain traceable from the animal’s birth to the finished product, with a consolidated presence in Italy and Europe. Everything built over time, with the same determination that guides our work every day.
From livestock traders to industry-leading producers

The milestones that brought us here
EARLY NINETEENTH CENTURY
The Leoni family arrived in Ariccia from the Marche region, specifically Gualdo del Tronto. They took root in the Castelli Romani, in a valley inhabited for centuries by wild swine.
1921
Augusto Leoni, the founding grandfather, was born. He grew up in a territory where livestock trading was a culture, not just a job.
The 1940s
Augusto realized that the right direction was cooked pork. He was among the first in Ariccia to debone the pig, season it with balance, and give it that tied shape that would make Porchetta di Ariccia famous worldwide. Leoni Randolfo was born.
1948
Randolfo, the father, was born. He grew up between trade and production, absorbing the craft since childhood.
1976
Augusto, the grandson, was born. He carries his grandfather’s name as a starting point and a responsibility.
The 80s / 90s
Randolfo structured the artisanal production. The company consolidated its presence in the Rome and Lazio markets. Porchetta di Ariccia moved beyond the village fraschette and began to conquer the capital’s delis.
2000-2010
Augusto, the grandson, led the company’s evolution toward national and international markets. Entry into the main Italian large-scale retail (GDO) channels, including Esselunga, MARR, Finiper, Iperal, Bennet, Sogegross, Maxidì, and Aspiag Service. First supplies to Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, Portugal, and England.
2011
Porchetta di Ariccia obtained Protected Geographical Indication status from the European Union, under EC Regulation no. 567/2011. A milestone that officially established the link between the product and the Ariccia territory.
2017
Leoni Randolfo obtained certification for export to Canada.
2019 to Present
IFS Food certification (no. AG/GDO/19/971), the international standard for food safety. In Ariccia, Leoni Randolfo is the only production facility to hold it. Launch of sliced trays in a protected atmosphere in large-scale retail: Leoni Randolfo is a pioneer of packaged Porchetta di Ariccia PGI in the GDO.

"From a small territory comes a great expansion."
This phrase says a lot, perhaps everything, about what it means for us to produce Porchetta di Ariccia PGI. A product born in a village in the Castelli Romani, protected by European regulations since 2011, and recognized today as one of the symbols of gastronomic Made in Italy worldwide.
A heritage passed down from generation to generation, with the same care for the raw material, the same respect for the production process, and the same awareness that craftsmanship and modern standards are not mutually exclusive: they seek each other out. Because guarding a tradition doesn’t just mean preserving it, but carrying it forward with rigor and dedication every day, without shortcuts.

Tradition is the starting point. The guarantee is our choice.

QUALITY, CERTIFICATIONS AND SUPPLY CHAIN
Quality that isn't just declared, but built every day.
The strength of Leoni Randolfo as a commercial partner is measured by the concrete guarantees it can offer. Porchetta di Ariccia PGI is protected by EU Regulation 567/2011, which dictates origin, ingredients, and processing methods. The Ariccia facility is IFS Food certified (no. AG/GDO/19/971), the international food safety standard recognized by large-scale retail worldwide: in Ariccia, Leoni Randolfo is the only production facility to hold it. The traceability system is verified by ISO 22005 certification, with every batch reconstructible at every step. The HACCP protocol regulates risk analysis at every production stage.
Leoni Randolfo is also the only producer in Italy of Porchetta di Ariccia PGI made with pigs that are antibiotic-free from birth: a record that comes from years of work on the supply chain and a certified farming system that excludes the use of antibiotics for the animal’s entire life. The animals grow in conditions that respect their natural welfare, tracked with latest-generation chips from birth to the finished product.
Sustainability is part of the same commitment. The Ariccia plant is equipped with a 100 kW photovoltaic system, which concretely contributes to reducing the environmental impact of production.
Operational reliability is also measured in daily life: quick responses, technical documentation always ready, samples available within 24 hours, and very few complaints. In a sector where trust is earned slowly and lost quickly, this carries as much weight as product quality. Sometimes more.
