FRESH GRAPES

In 1979, the children of the founders Mariano Peppi and Albino Porfiri: Luis Peppi, Raimundo and Basilio Porfiri Romagnoli; Together with their friends, Aurelio San Nicolás Rosique and Romano Cabrini Oddi, decide to form a company and build a grape packing and cold warehouse to have a common place in which to pack and store their fruit with the highest quality standards, and thus have of a significant volume of fruit to present a more attractive offer to the exporters existing on that date, among which the South American Fruit Company (Safco) stood out. They decided to call it Río Blanco, in honor of the pre-Andean tributary of the Aconcagua River, without suspecting that in less than three decades it would be one of the main references of table grapes in the world.
