When I first set up my Vallebona stall in Borough Market in 1998, it was the continuation of a long family obsession with great food that started with my great grandfather Agostino who dealt in fine olive oils, wines, cheeses and bottarga from the little island of San Pietro off the south west coast of Sardinia in 1890. His son Egidio expanded the operation in the 1920s with his fleet of boats, trading with clients in Spain, Corsica and North Africa. Today we are still bringing the same gourmet products directly to you from our warehouse and shop in Wimbledon.

Vallebona is now a leading supplier of premium quality Italian and Sardinian artisanal products in the UK. We take pride in delivering to you our range of cheeses, charcuterie and pantry items sourced only from the most authentic producers and artisans who themselves take a pride in the traditions and production methods, ensuring the superb quality that we guarantee. It so happens that many of the best producers today are the descendants of the gentlemen Agostino and Egidio worked with over 100 years ago, the passion having been passed down from father to son; we are very proud to retain our connections with them and to continue to share their passion.

It is our mission not only to supply you with the best produce, but to provide you with the best customer service. Supplying, as we do, the top restaurants, caterers and speciality food outlets in the UK, we understand that your expectations are high, as are those of your own discerning customers.

To this end, I insist that our staff are highly trained and knowledgeable food enthusiasts themselves, able to offer detailed information and advice about our extensive range. They ensure that your orders are processed courteously and efficiently and that should any problems arise, they are dealt with promptly and effectively. We regularly send out free samples of products to our customers, encouraging you to try new things and experiment with unusual combinations. We are also SALSA certified guaranteeing our products safety and reliability.

We pride ourselves on our rewarding relationships with our clients, and I would welcome you to visit us at our premises in south west London. We are always at the annual Speciality and Fine Food Fair at Olympia in September, where we would love to see you. In the meantime, I hope you will be inspired by the contents of this brochure and that we will be hearing from you soon.

Yours faithfully,
