We started in 1993 from a small reality: 3 hectares in Scanzano Jonico. But our dream was already big: to grow the best strawberry that men, women and territory together could create. After 30 years that dream has become big, but we have not yet stopped dedicating all our passion to it, to make it even bigger.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Today Nicofruit is much more than the highest quality strawberries that can arrive on your table. We started as a family business, Three generations later we have become an organization of no less than 30 growers, united in an organization that promotes the goodness of Basilicata’s fruits, the respect for tradition and territory. Their ability to express the best of our land, loving it and also improving the quality and balance of the environment.
Fragola Matera\u00ae has become a trademark that has made the whole of Basilicata grow. But alongside the strawberry there are today new flavours, new sweetnesses. Golden, full-flavoured kiwis and much more that we are already dreaming of and fielding.
Those 3 hectares have become 90. The pride of cultivating the best has grown a community and a territory. And we will continue to cultivate it. Generation after generation.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
