The “Sardine Pollastrini di Anzio” company was founded in 1889 by Salvatore Pollastrini; due to the availability on the local market of a great quantity of fish caught but not daily consumed, Salvatore Pollastrini created the first Italian company specialized in canning sardines.
At the beginning, the company was dedicated to the production of sardines canned with olive oil. During the fifties the Sepe family, after more than sixty years of experience and devotion to the fishing fields of activity, took over the “Pollastrini” company, starting the new production, using an old family recipe, of canned sardines with tomato sauce and spicy sardines.
