For four generations in California, they have grown, dried, processed and packaged only the finest and freshest dried fruit snacks and ingredient product. Every Mariani product represents the family heritage of premium quality dried fruit.
The quest for perfection began in 1906 when Paul Mariani, the immigrant son of a European farmer, arrived in the lush Santa Clara Valley. He planted fruit trees on four acres and within a few years, after working hard and surviving set backs, began to prosper. Over the years he expanded his acreage, opened new markets, and developed a keen understanding for prime fruit growing areas both locally and around the world.
In 2021, Mariani are celebrating 105 as a family business and five years ago created a fantastic film to showcase their business in their centenary.
