About us
La Doria Group: land, people, roots
La Doria has its roots in southern Italy, in the Nocerino-Sarnese countryside, a land initially devoted to the cultivation of tomatoes and which has become over time one of the two Italian poles of the processing of this wonderful product.
Founded in the 1950s as a family business specialising in tomato processing, today it is a food company of excellence, an international leader in the canning sector.
The fruits of our labour
Our mission: the quality alternative to the brand
Our goal is to supply La Doria clients with top quality business-to-business products at highly competitive prices and as an alternative to the brands.
Our strategy is based on a combination of organic growth – to be achieved through market expansion and the pursuit of efficiency – and external growth by exploiting the prospects of consolidation in the food industry.
International Vocation and Italian Identity
Ours is a story that starts from our homeland and reaches all over the world, combining strong Italian roots with an international vocation. We have always been present in foreign markets on which we continue to grow steadily, today more than 80% of our revenues are generated abroad.
Values and passion since 1954
- Legality
- Ethics
- Transparency
- Respect for workers’ rights
- Environmental sustainability
- Local development
These are the principles that guide the actions of our company. They are for us inalienable values as well as the necessary condition for economic activity and the healthy and full development of the territory.
We have plants spread across several regions of Italy, but the region of Campania is still essential to our activities, and not only those of manufacturing. Our headquarters and our main factory is located at Angri.
