BORGO SALUMI
HOLLAND PARK, QUEENSLAND
Growing up around artisan style salumi was entirely normal for Luigi Borgo in his formative years. A first generation Australian with a proud Veneto heritage, his parent’s passion and profession for producing fine prosciuttos, pancettas and salamis was so strong that there really was nothing else he could imagine doing with the rest of his life. Perfecting the art of hand made smallgoods on a scale that allowed him to do it every day became a challenge he continues to embrace.
Today, and with Queensland’s most historical salumi brand, working with free range breeders and continuing to pioneer in his craft, Borgo’s range is one of the most complete and compelling offerings of Northern Italian style smallgoods in the country.
