La Contadina Buffala

La Bella Contadina is an Italian dairy brand rooted in the traditions of Southern Italy, with origins dating back to the mid-20th century. Based in Campania, a region renowned for buffalo milk production, the brand blends artisanal know-how with modern dairy techniques to create authentic, high- quality products. 

Born in 1950 from the passion and love for buffalo mozzarella, the La Bella Contadina dairy is located in the heart of the DOP area between the cities of Capua and Mondragone, historic locations for the breeding and processing of buffalo milk.

In 1950 , the farm and buffalo breeding business were founded, which flourished thanks to a passion for producing buffalo mozzarella. Over the years, the business evolved and became a successful dairy.

In 1998 , Caseificio La Bella Contadina opened its doors and began selling its products on the local market, achieving great success. Thanks to the quality of its products, sales expanded beyond the region, consolidating its reputation and commercial success.

In 2010 , increased production necessitated an expansion of the La Bella Contadina Dairy premises. Furthermore, the dairy acquired cutting-edge equipment to improve product quality and develop its market abroad, becoming a modern and competitive company.

In 2016 , Caseificio La Bella Contadina continued to invest in its growth, carrying out further expansions and creating a biogas production plant and a photovoltaic system to reduce the environmental impact of its activity.

Today , Caseificio La Bella Contadina has become a major player in the Italian dairy industry, thanks to its focus on product quality, cutting-edge technology, and its ability to adapt to new production, quality, and market demands. Its modern and functional structure makes it one of the most important and advanced dairies in the sector.

The brand is best known for its Mozzarella di Bufala Campana DOP, made from 100% buffalo milk sourced within the protected DOP area. Alongside mozzarella, La Bella Contadina produces a range of fresh cheeses such as burrata, ricotta, and braided mozzarella, serving both retail and food-service markets worldwide.

Committed to quality and sustainability, La Bella Contadina follows strict food safety standards and invests in environmentally responsible production. Today, the brand represents a balance of tradition, innovation, and genuine Italian flavor, exporting its products to dozens of countries around the globe.
