Franchi Sementi is so much more than just packaged vegetable seeds; it is a story of tradition, pride, experience, quality and excellence, spread over seven generations. In 1783 Giovanni Franchi started selling seeds around the market squares of Parma. The company is still the same family 229 years later, with Giampiero Franchi at the helm and modern facilities in Bergamo, near Milan.
Franchi offers seeds from every region of Italy and helps to preserve Italian cuisine.
Franchi buys 70% of its seed from Italian farmers. Someone from the company visits those farmers regularly to ensure that the seed crops are healthy and the quality standards are complied with.
The packages are large, beautiful and have color photos on the front and descriptions in multiple languages on the back. The most important thing is that the Franchi seeds produce strong, healthy plants that you can eat and give beautiful flowers.
