Napoletano family manages this company gathering the best San Marzano tomato producers which have been working for 30 years.
San Marzano tomato is mainly cultivated in the Agro Sarnese Nocerino area, and it is known and appreciated throughout the world for its characteristics, which are exalted by its transformation into “peeled tomato”.

It is cultivated as the vineyard and is harvested three or four times a year - from July until September.

Its taste is typically bitter-sweet, and its colour is bright red, the shape of its berry is extended, with longitudinal parallel depressions, with poor presence of seeds and placental fibres; moreover, its skin, when completely ripe, can be easily removed. These features, together with the chemical-physical characteristics, let San Marzano tomato be unique, both in the fresh status and in the transformed one. It is a very delicate tomato, that should be carefully handled. After its harvest, the tomato is washed and canned, with no additives neither preservatives. Thanks to the eruptive material coming from the Vesuvius, the Agro Nocerino-Sarnese soil is extraordinarily fruitful and its products have an authentic fragrance and taste.

In this ecological area, San Marzano tomato has reached its complete ripeness and has achieved its the best organoleptic characteristics.Solania is proud to produce and transform the best San Marzano tomatoes, according to the great historical tradition, inherited by the local farmers along past centuries.
