CLEMENTE - A HISTORICAL OIL MECHANICAL COMPANY

The Company was founded by Pasquale Clemente in Italy’s Apulia region in 1963, from the bet of a young visionary entrepreneur who, looking at the agricultural prosperity of his land, decided to lay the foundations for his business. Pasquale had in mind a mechanical workshop for the oil sector, which would have facilitated the hard work of oil millers.

In Pasquale’s view, the Apulia region, with its historical olive groves, agricultural fields and centuries-old rural culture was an extraordinarily rich land in which his business vision could take root and new ideas could be nurtured.
