Sicil Canapa

Sicilcanapa Trade srl was founded in Ispica in 2012, but grew out of a project undertaken in 2007 by Giuseppe Sutera Sardo, President of the Sicilian Hemp Association, and Stefania Martorina, who together chose to invest energy and financial resources to create a new entrepreneurial reality. capable of operating in the agricultural, industrial and commercial sectors.

The company currently markets hemp-based food, phytocosmetic and textile products.

With the aim of promoting hemp and its countless applications linked to typical local products, Sicilcanapa has created both new and traditional foods, such as Modica chocolate enriched with shelled hemp seeds and bronze-stretched pasta with wheat flour . And, once again, the company is experimenting with the creation of innovative products that enhance the plant's properties, such as Hemp power , the protein-rich energy bar obtained with just two ingredients (hemp and honey). What's more, since 2014 Sicilcanapa has been distributing natural hemp-based cosmetics, the HEVO phytocosmetic line with hemp oil, almond and Sicilian citrus essential oils.
"Nothing is thrown away from hemp", so the company, in addition to continuing to experiment with new foods by combining the benefits of typical products with the nutritional properties of hemp, plans to launch experimental applications in diversified markets, such as green building, livestock and agriculture.
