Our flavourful salamis and prosciutto cotto begin with premium pork from the Price family’s Sunterra Farms and their partner farms. This industry-leading agricultural establishment has been rooted in animal well-being, sustainability and innovation for over 50 years. The meat is then processed at Sunterra Meats using the highest standard food safety and processing techniques. Finally, the pork is cooked and cured in Soleterra d’Italia’s federally-inspected, state-of-the-art facility to deliver salumi of uncompromised quality. This vertical farm-to-fork integration lets us maintain strict control over all aspects of production and ensure only the best products make it to customers across Canada, the United States and Asia.
All of our cooked and cured meats are crafted using generations-old recipes and techniques from the Simonini family of Modena, Italy. Their unwavering commitment to tradition has made their company, Industria Salumi Simonini, a world-class producer of premium Italian cured pork products for over 90 years.
This unique integration of Sunterra’s superior pork and the Simoninis’ trusted Italian recipes make Soleterra d’Italia a name synonymous with quality, and allows us to bring authentic cooked and cured meats to dinner tables across the world.
In 1927, the Simonini family set up a small processing plant in Modena, Italy and became purveyors of superior Italian cured pork products. In 1970, the Price family founded Sunterra in Alberta, Canada, which grew to become a fully integrated family-run food company with farming, meat processing and retail operations.
With generations of expertise in their disciplines, our two founding families came together to form Soleterra d’Italia in 2016, producing cooked and cured meats of uncompromised quality.
