A leader in bresaola production, a few years ago Rigamonti joined the Brazilian JBS SA group, the world leader in processing animal protein, which bought all the shares in this venerable Valtellina company, founded in 1913. The meat, frozen Brazilian beef, is processed in Valtellina. The bresaola, IGP and uncertified for the more prestigious line, is produced in Montagna in Valtellina, at the historical headquarters, and also in the newer plants in Poggiridenti (1970s) and Mazzo in Valtellina, which opened in 1986. The company also makes horsemeat, turkey and Aberdeen Angus bresaola, as well as ham, speck and pancetta, and exports to 16 countries.
