AZ. GRAN SASSO ss di PETRONIO GIULIO

The Gran Sasso di Petronio Giulio company manages the supply chain for Agnello del Centro Italia IGP from Castel del Monte, on the Aquila side of the Apennines. The denomination it works with is singular but vast in scope: it covers over 1403 municipalities in central Italy, and the challenge is not so much to produce as to maintain uniformity and traceability across such an extensive geographical area. The producer categorizes ovine carcasses rigorously—light, heavy, and castrated—from lambs raised first on milk and then on pasture. This supply chain organization is designed to ensure that protection is tangible even on a large scale, where animals from distant farms must meet the same criteria. In a pastoral territory that Abruzzo shares with neighboring regions, Gran Sasso's work lies primarily in this discipline of the supply chain: making repeatable and verifiable what would otherwise remain tied to individual flocks and seasons.
