Two families: one passion
Giovanna, a forward-thinking girl from Pamparato, a tiny rural village nestled in the mountains of Piemonte, every winter goes olive-picking in Aurigo, Liguria, a pretty hilly village rich by olive-trees on the Italian Riviera.
Giovanna, makes a very close friend with another girl called Giovanna, nicknamed "Nanina".
They are deeply linked to each other by an intense and only passion: natural food.
Their goal is to start looking for healthy, local food from their regions: Piemonte and Liguria.
By following old recipes they rediscover the flavours and the traditions of their villages.
In 1957 the two girls
developed a business selling products of their regions, promoting healthy eating and at the same time preserving the environment.
Shortly after, a bakery, a delicatessen shop and an olive mill were realized.
The two girls passed down to their grandchildren their enthusiasm and passion for the flavours and fragrances of the north - west Italian regional food.
Local products that come straight from the mountains, the hills, as well as from the sea along the Ligurian coast..
Here we are…
The two dynamic girls' grandchildren!
We opened a shop in London named "Da Giovanna" after our grandmas, importing excellent Italian food!
We want to provide a great gastronomic experience to all of you who really appreciate the pleasure for culinary Italian delights.
"We offer"
In our 'Da Giovanna' you will find the best selection of wines, charcuterie, pasta fresca, antipasti, confectionery, sauces, extra virgin olive oil, cheese as well as Italian fruit and vegatables. So that our customers may feel being, even just for one night, in a part of Italy.
