Each product available on the platform is listed and sold by a partner seller identified on the product page. The platform acts as a metasearch/marketplace: it facilitates discovery and checkout, but the sale is made by the seller, who becomes responsible for the transaction.
Shipping is managed directly by the partner seller. The package is sent from the seller's warehouse or logistics network and handed over to the courier. This model enables more efficient deliveries and ensures that order management is handled by the party with actual availability of the product.
On the product page, you will find ingredients, allergens and nutritional information based on the data provided by the seller or producer, namely the official label. If you have allergies or intolerances, we recommend carefully checking the product page before purchasing and contacting the seller with any specific questions.
The platform was created to promote Italian food and make it more accessible. We select sellers in the food e-commerce sector with consistent catalogs and transparent information. Each product is associated with an identifiable seller and a complete information page: we want shopping here to mean buying with confidence.
Delivery times and costs depend on the seller and destination. At checkout, you will always find an updated delivery estimate before confirming payment. For international shipments, times may vary depending on the country and courier.
Looking at a map, an island gives us the illusion of being a small world unto itself. With its clearly defined boundaries, it seems to contain a society impervious to the passage of time and seasons, easier to decipher because it is sheltered from the changing complexity of the world. But this is a distortion, all the more so when—as with Sicily—it lives in the shadow of one of the most overpowering and indelible images that such a small place has ever managed to create. Behind the island «built and rebuilt by books, films, paintings and black-and-white photography» there is now a new one, hidden but no less real. The urban and metropolitan one, that of landings, wine and tropical fruit. A Sicily sometimes as invisible as the poisons discharged into the sea and air by Europe's second-largest petrochemical complex. Like the migrants arriving in Lampedusa, kept at a distance from the routes of tourists and locals. Like the population flows leaving the island, giving it the sad distinction of being Italy's leading region for emigration. A place where extremes coexist, like the central neighborhoods of Palermo, where the capital of culture vibrates while the invisible city of crack languishes. Sicily, where climate change is transforming the agricultural landscape, increasingly at risk of flooding and desertification, and some take advantage of this to replace vines with coffee and avocados. Far from attempting to explain it, the following pages collect postcards from this new Sicily. They are blurred images, because the subject is constantly moving. Because Sicily too is moving and, yes, changing.
