We are SFS Sicilian Food Shop Selections of excellence
We are expert selectors of traditional Sicilian agri-food products.
SFS is an innovative marketplace that selects, gathers, presents, sells and delivers to your home the best traditional Sicilian food products, true local specialties, goodness made with typical, original, familiar recipes, of recognized and guaranteed quality. Products that have a history, a name, a reputation and that we would all like to continue to appear on our tables.
Who is it for?
Sicilian Food Shop was created for all those who are passionate about Sicilian cuisine and food and wine, for those who love to experiment with traditional dishes and who want to learn more about the origin, history and uniqueness of the products they taste.
How to satisfy all these desires?
Researching and selecting only the best typical products of our Sicily, products that still today maintain that craftsmanship that makes them unique and obviously being able to buy them online.
How the selection takes place
The SFS team personally verifies both the manufacturing process of the individual product and the raw materials used.
Beyond the regulatory provisions on product traceability governed by the law (which a small home-style artisan workshop cannot afford), what interests us at SFS is verifying that traditional products, in their path of birth, growth and/or production, respect the highest quality standards.
We go to visit the producers, we buy and taste the excellences, we try to understand which and how many stories of authenticity there are behind their productions.
And when they convince us, we can't wait to share our discovery with you, by placing that product online on our site and available for you to purchase and becoming its first consumers.
The importance of the territory
The authentic product can only be the child of the territory. We look first of all for those traditional agri-food products, the result of the biodiversity that characterizes our Sicily, which unfortunately for many reasons often risk disappearing but which are a true heritage to be safeguarded. And we are not just talking about particular specialties, but also the protagonists of the daily life of each of us: (pasta, cured meats, cheeses, honey, preserves, wine, extra virgin olive oil, baked goods) but on which the food industry has often intervened by altering the traditional processes in order to guarantee greater production, long conservation, efficiency, profitability of the production processes and increasingly lower prices at the expense of course of the taste and final quality. Our products belong to the same categories, but we choose and present only those that are the result of small productions, often artisanal, which focus their attention on traditional taste and quality, with the aim of respecting and recovering the original recipes thus maintaining the original organoleptic characteristics.
Authenticity is your identity card.
Behind the choices and selections that Sicilian Food Shop makes, there is always an accurate analysis of the producer / breeder / grower and of his way of working the products, an in-depth analysis of the supply chain, the verification of the working environment and, last but not least, the tasting of the product.
The SFS team does not just need a story or an interview, but personally verifies everything that lies behind the products presented.
They visit the companies, laboratories, farms, working environments, collect as much information as possible to acquire all the elements that allow you to establish whether a product is authentic or not and whether it is suitable to be presented to your table with our guarantee
