An evocative journey through time – between tracks, locomotives and carriages that have gone through history – to celebrate another journey: the one undertaken 40 years ago by the Acquaviva family, which, from 1979 to the present, has transformed a small and prosperous family industry into a one of the market leaders.

The event was an opportunity to retrace the phases of this important growth that, after 40 years, has no intention of stopping, but continues under the auspices of innovation, sustainability, quality and safety, while maintaining the ancient values of tradition and passion for baked goods.
