Besio: a synonym for candied fruit
and Chinotti since 1860

LOGO BESIO CHINOTTO SAVONAThe company “Besio” has been synonymous with quality, candied fruit and Chinotti for more than a century.

Around 1877/1880 Vincenzo BESIO, already a grocer and confectioner with his own business in Savona from 1860 onwards, learns about the techniques of candying used at Silvestre Allemand & c.
