Molino Naldoni: seven generations of milling since 1705.

From a water mill in the hills of Romagna to a state-of-the-art facility in Faenza, the Naldoni family has been milling wheat into flour for over three centuries. It's the same flour behind every bag we bring to your kitchen.

From our lands to your table

Flour making has never been an industrial process to the Naldoni family. It's a craft passed from father to son for seven generations, refined but never rushed.

1705, Romagna

It began at a water mill in the Apennines.

The Naldoni story starts in 1705, at a water mill deep in the Romagna hills. From mill to mill, father to son, the family has carried the craft of milling forward for seven generations.

The first roller mill, after the war.

In the years after the Second World War, brothers Igino and Elido Naldoni opened the family's first roller mill at Marzeno di Brisighella, an operation later converted entirely to organic milling.
