Azienda Agricola Russo F. S.a.S. di Russo Francesco & C.

Azienda Agricola Russo cultivates the Cipolla Rossa di Tropea Calabria IGP along the Calabrian Tyrrhenian coast, within a protected area that extends over twenty-three municipalities. It is a crop with strict boundaries, where the delimitation is not bureaucratic formality but part of the product's character: the natural sweetness and low pungency that distinguish this red onion depend as much on the seed as on the soil and coastal climate. The harvest follows three distinct destinies—young spring onion, fresh bulb, and storage onion—and each corresponds to a different moment and use in the kitchen. The company's work is reflected in this fidelity to the local genetic heritage, preserved within a rigorously defined cultivation perimeter. More than a commercial vegetable, Tropea here is a chapter of Calabrian agricultural identity, handed down plant by plant and indissolubly linked to the stretch of coast that gives it its name. A single denomination that condenses geography, genetics, and craftsmanship into a single recognizable bulb.
