From Parma to
your table.

What started with a few wedges carried home from Parma is now in the cheese aisle near you.

Alessia grew up in a family from Parma, where Parmigiano Reggiano was always on the table. Every trip back to Italy meant stuffing wedges into her luggage because nothing in America tasted the same. When she brought her husband Paul to Italy for the first time, he fell in love with the food of Emilia-Romagna. Together, they decided to stop smuggling cheese and start importing it properly.

Vero sources Parmigiano Reggiano DOP straight from Emilia-Romagna. Every wheel is inspected and fire-branded by the Consorzio. It's the protected mark that means it can be made nowhere else. What we bring over is the real thing, aged and portioned for the way people actually eat.

We'd love to see how you enjoy Vero — straight out of the package, as the finishing touch to dinner, or grated into a favorite recipe. Find us in stores, and tell us what it's like to finally have real Parmigiano Reggiano stateside.

it all started with a suitcase of cheese
