Enoagricola Rossi S.r.l. came into being on 4 January 1982, thanks to the wishes of the present Partners to re-activate the production line of a pre-existing engineering industry which had operated in the agricultural machine sector, especially wine production.

The early years required determination to take on competitors and to meet the financial liabilities which were necessary to allow the company to obtain the resources it needed. The company was greatly helped by the many clients who were willing to put their faith in this new venture, and to suppliers who extended the necessary lines of credit. The experience gained by the Partners in various areas of company organisation and management did the rest, and now the Company could look to the future with a degree of confidence.

Evidence of progress against competitors was confirmed when Federconsorzi Italia (the Italian Federation of Agricultural Unions) chose Enoagricola Rossi as its supplier of wine-making machinery and agricultural equipment. During the 1990s, the Company took the strategic decision to expand into foreign markets; to this end, it concentrated on greater diversity of products, investing substantial resources both in development and the promotion of the commercial network.

Thus the company is now in a position to design and supply the following product lines:

hay-making equipment, including large-capacity machines for use in Italy and abroad by commercial farms involved in high volumes of reaping and harvesting of hay;

oil-processing machines, mainly designed for the home market or for small companies which process limited quantities, but nevertheless wish to carry our the whole operation themselves;

wine-making equipment, including that which is mainly intended for domestic customers or small companies.

The Company has almost trebled its turnover in the last ten years

At present, the Firm has 45 direct employees and is provided with a network of high-quality Suppliers who carry out engineering operations with high technological content (in particular, casting, laser welding and thermic treatments).

The challenge of international markets and globalisation in the area of agricultural machinery and equipment, and especially the North American market, has been met with great success, thanks to a policy of marketing and quality which is attentive to customers’ needs and expectations. Due particularly to the high level of personalisation of the machinery and equipment supplied, and a dedicated policy of assistance, Enoagricola Rossi today exports more than 1.80% of its output to the United States. It has also made inroads into the North African and Australian markets and is an important manufacturer for the Italian and European market.
