Located in Puglia, at the gateway to the Itria valley, Beltion is a leading company in the production of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks since 1952.
A constant search for excellence, customer satisfaction, innovation and respect for the environment are the values that drive the company in their continuous improvement process that is the foundation of our success.
Since 1885, the founder Giacomo Giannandrea’s maternal grandparents offered a delicious drink made from fresh almonds crushed in a large stone mortar, in a cafeteria on the walls of old Putignano. In the early 1950s, he experimented with the production of almond milk syrup, named Beltion (from the Greek word for “the best”), a product that was soon appreciated by consumers all over the south of Italy.
Over the years and with the passing of the generations, production at Beltion has increased its range of products and its export markets. First Giacomo Giannandrea and then his children Francesco, Angelo and Roberto have driven company growth, with the opening of a new production site equipped with latest-generation technological plants and a laboratory for the development and control of production, never forgetting attention paid to the products’ total quality.
Today, Beltion can boast an ideal combination of high-value production and reliable organization, able to guarantee excellent price/quality ratio for the customer, a low lead-time, immediate availability and fast delivery.
Beltion has also drawn up and adopted its own code of ethics and regulations, through which it intends to spread an enterprise culture based on legality, transparency, ethics, correctness and observance of rules, as well as controlling each stage of decision-making and operational processes for corporate activity.
Work culture, respect of traditions and internationalization are the three inspiring principles that have guided and guide Beltion towards the challenges of the future.
