Raffaele Delcuratolo owner and founder of Cannensi Italy and Canada.
Since is creation in 2008 Cannensi has been managed, coordinated and promoted by myself personally. I follow and care for my products from the planting of the seed to the delivery of the products to my respected clients. My beliefs are environmental sustainability, health and food security, the naturalness and purity of good food, territoriality, flavor, taste and gastronomical quality, and guaranteeing the consumer a quality product.
My work takes place mainly in the fields where I take care of my crops. Times of harvest and transformation are coordinated in a way in which the produce is 'worked' the least amount possible thus avoiding accidentally altering the natural goodness of the product.
When not out in the fields I am occupied by promoting, informing, explaining, and selling my products directly to the consumer, organizing fairs, exhibits and involving myself with all kinds of other events to make known the pure goodness of our Apulian products. I am also passionate for attending courses on pruning olive trees and caring for my olive grooves. I enroll in courses put on by ASSAM (Association for agricultural sector services), which organizes national championships for agriculturalists.

I think that in a free market where we are all consumers every minute of every day, the role of the entrepreneur is to get closer and build a trusting relationship to the final consumer in order to communicate and the natural process of the product. It is for this reason that we deliver our goods directly to our customers doorsteps.
