In 1913, on the eve of World War I, Luigi Zàini saw the opportunity to turn his research laboratory into a small chocolate, cocoa, and candy production factory. He founded Zàini SpA in Milan. The Zàini tradition continues to this day. The third generation currently runs the company and continues to passionately and enthusiastically recreate those traditional handmade chocolates and candies first created by Luigi Zàini. New products have been developed, and both the new and old continue to uphold the Zàini tradition.
