ItabercoItabercoItaberco is more than just a name—it’s a part of our story. The name comes from a blend of Ita (short for Italy, reflecting Italian influences), Ber (short for Berj, the name of our founder’s son), and Co (for company). Fun fact: Berj is now our President, and he’d probably be mortified to know we’re telling the world that his name is literally in the company name. But we think it’s a pretty sweet legacy—just like the products we create.

While some companies may offer one or two of these qualities, Itaberco brings all three together under one roof. That combination is what makes us truly different—and why our customers trust us as a partner, not just a supplier.
