ALCISA S.p.A.
ALCISA S.p.A. holds certifications for two cooked cured meats that mark the Modena festive calendar: Zampone and Cotechino Modena IGP. The first encloses meat, fat, and rind within the casing of a pig's front trotter, and is a dish that Northern Italy brings to the table especially on New Year's Eve. The second offers the same mixture in a cylindrical shape, with a compact and uniform texture, more versatile and suitable for everyday use. What distinguishes these two products is their scale: the recognized production area encompasses 1,903 municipalities, well beyond the borders of Modena alone, positioning the company among the guarantors of a pork heritage spread across much of the North. In compliance with the regulations, ALCISA therefore works not on a local niche but on a production codified at a supra-regional level, where the balance between ingredients remains the common thread uniting the two denominations and defining their cooked identity.
