Salumificio Conti

Salumificio Conti is a family-owned company based in Langhirano, in the heart of Italy's Parma region, renowned for its production of premium prosciutto. Founded in 1968, the company builds upon a rich family tradition in agriculture and livestock farming that dates back to 1814.

They specialize in the production of Prosciutto di Parma DOP, using traditional methods that include the careful selection of raw materials from the best farms in the Po Valley. The pigs are fed a diet of grains and whey derived from Parmigiano Reggiano production, which contributes to the exceptional quality of the meat.

The production process involves hand-dosing pure sea salt, coating the meat with a mixture of lard, salt, rice flour, and pepper to prevent drying, and extended aging under natural conditions. These steps allow the development of the prosciutto’s unique flavor and aroma.

The company is committed to preserving local tradition and quality, making it a standout in the world of Italian cured meats. They also offer guided tours of their facilities with tastings, providing visitors with an insight into the production process and the rich history of Parma prosciutto.
