Carlino has been specialising in traditional Sicilian preserved fish for more than 50 years, with its roots dating back to the 1950s in Sciacca, Sicily. Founded by Pasquale Carlino and his brother-in-law, the family business grew from traditional fish processing into a specialist producer of premium anchovies and other Mediterranean seafood. Based in Sciacca on Sicily's southwest coast, Carlino uses fish from the Mediterranean and continues to combine traditional methods with modern processing. Their anchovies are caught during the prime season, when they are at their freshest and most flavoursome, then processed quickly to preserve their firm texture, delicate flavour and freshness.
