Born in 2016, Siziliessen GbR is a company founded by two young guys, Vincenzo Costanza and Pietro Nicotra, operating in food import, sales and distribution in Berlin, Germany. The brand Siziliessen is the combination of two german words: SIZILIEN and ESSEN. “Essen” because we are operating in food business; “Sizilien” because Sicily is the cornerstone of our concept. The mission of the company is to make people know about the goodness of Sicilian products and Vincenzo and Pietro are the main sponsors of top quality food exclusively “Made in Sicily”. Our philosophy is extremely simple, based just on the best crafted food products from the most beautiful island of the Mediterranean See. Behind every single product there is a lot of hard work: before choosing a product, we spend weeks , sometimes even months, researching the best craft made products; then we go to visit the producers to see how they works and checking personally everything we want to know. That’s because we want to guarantee the highest quality standards. Today, Siziliessen has been able to offer the best artisan products by creating a direct relation between producers and customers, and focusing on quality, responsibility and sustainability.
