Gerlando Agro’
Sicily 1982.
I was born in a family of peasant tradition where the love for this land has been handed down for centuries, cultivating it with tenacity.
It all started at the age of 6, when it was time to harvest, I loved to go with my father and grandfather to pick grapes and then make wine.
In the summer time I always joined in the family business,where we were growing vegetables and then going with my Grandfather selling the produce in our locality with the lovely Ape Piaggio.
We were very successful in our business because my family is known as local farmers and the customers loved the Nustrali product.
Nustrali in Sicilian mean local and organic……
My father in the 1985 bought a stall In the wholesale market starting to import and export fruit and veg from all the world, with him I believe I received a great education in terms of knowledge and network for this beautiful job.
In 2011 I decided to move and open my own company in the majestic Ireland, importing from my family farm and the best Italian producers of fine fruit and vegetables to the Irish market.
