Building on a century of experience in the Italian culinary tradition, Fabbri 1905 S.p.A. (hereafter Fabbri 1905 or Fabbri), offers consumers and professionals products, premium ingredients and innovative solutions, with high added value, to bring their own personal creativity to life in the preparation of food and beverage specialities both in and out of the home. The great attention Fabbri 1905 pays to quality, both in its products and manufacturing processes, has made the company a sterling example of “Made in Italy” quality, both in Italy itself and abroad.

In the retail channel, Fabbri 1905 operates through large-scale retail sales and digital sales, both through its own e-shop and through the best national and international marketplaces. The main products for consumers include, in addition to the original Amarena Fabbri and other specialities in syrup such as Strawberry and Ginger, Toppings, Syrups, Fruit in Liqueur, and, among the new products introduced in 2022, 3 spreadable creams and an exquisite praline, the Bombon Cuor di Amarena Fabbri;
For the “outside the home” market, aimed at beverage professionals in nighttime and daytime settings, cafes, and restaurants, Fabbri 1905 offers an extensive range of syrups and fruit pulps for modern mixology and for the creation of artisanal drinks and fruit slushes; additional service products such as cold creams, toppings and ingredients for smoothies and milk shakes are also available. The jewel in the company's crown is a signature line of liqueurs, “Premiata Distilleria G. Fabbri”, consisting of Fabbri Gin and Marendry Bitter, both made unique by the inimitable notes of Amarena Fabbri. Together with the Special “Cherries”, these “premium” liqueurs are born from Fabbri's longstanding tradition and extensive expertise in the liquor world.
The company provides pastry shops and gelato shops with all the necessary ingredients for excellent artisanal gelato prepared according to Italian tradition. Powder bases, anhydrous or sugar flavouring pastes, variegates, fillings, and toppings are just a selection of the many products offered by Fabbri.
Intended for the artisan pastry chef are products for the creation of cakes, parfaits, single-portions, baked classics and frozen desserts.
In addition to the sale of its products to consumers and to various professional categories, Fabbri 1905 is committed to training new talents: the Fabbri Master Class school, established in 1998, is today more than ever a training environment for novice professionals and for those who want to hone techniques and learn new trends. Training is offered, including on customer premises, in mixed drinks, coffee, gelato and pastry.
Fabbri 1905 collaborates with renowned Master Gelato Makers, Pastry Chefs and Mixologists such as Davide Malizia, Francesco Elmi, Bruno Vanzan, Gianni Cocco and Mattia Pastori, allowing the company to identify and interpret market trends in advance, developing products, recipes and new ideas to bring to the public, recognising the increasingly evolving needs of professionals and adapting its output accordingly.
Finally, there are a number of collaborations with other companies, both Italian and foreign, with whom Fabbri 1905 creates new products in comarketing, using in particular its most iconic product, Amarena Fabbri. These include Sammontana for the famous Sammontana Barattolino jar (single-portion or family size) with Amarena Fabbri, Industria Dolciaria Borsari for leavened pastries with Amarena Fabbri, Herbamelle with Fabbri Mint and with Amarena Fabbri, and the more recent sugared almonds with Amarena Fabbri produced in collaboration with Maxtris
