As the UK’s leading online Italian food wholesaler, Salvo 1968 brings that authentic taste of Italy to all - whether you’re running a classic Italian Pizzeria, a popular local pub, a busy deli, or catering for schools and hospitality. Beyond supplying ingredients, Salvo 1968 also runs pizza masterclasses, customer training sessions and live demonstrations, helping businesses raise their game in the kitchen.
With pizza styles evolving across London and beyond - from traditional Neapolitan to New Haven and other modern, crunchier styles - Salvo needed an oven that could keep up: one flexible enough for professional training sessions, yet reliable enough to guarantee consistent results every time, regardless of dough or style. Luigi Forte, Executive Pizza Consultant at Salvo, explains how the Alfa Zeno 4 gave them this versatility:
“We do any style of pizza with this oven, with any kind of dough, so it helps a lot to use one oven for all our masterclasses. Customers love not just the look, but they love the way the oven cooks. Anywhere you put the pizza in this oven will cook perfectly, as it has amazing temperature settings as well because you can set the bottom, the back and the front top.”
This flexibility has transformed the way Salvo delivers its training. Rather than switching between different pieces of equipment, the team can explore a range of pizza styles using a single oven, allowing a seamless experience. For many of Salvo's customers, the Zeno 4 proves itself through use and wins people over with its performance and Italian character:
"When they get working with it, they kind of fall more in love with it because we slowly teach them what the oven can do. That's the process, really, that any customer who comes into Salvo will go through."
For Salvo 1968, the Alfa Zeno 4 supplied by Jestic has simplified masterclasses, impressed customers and consistently delivered the results needed to win businesses over to a new way of working. Luigi also credits Jestic's partnership and support as a key part of Salvo's success with the new oven:
"We're thankful to Jestic for giving us the opportunity to work together as partners and make sure our customers get the best service."
Whether you're opening a new pizzeria or looking to expand your offering, insight from Salvo 1968 offers a practical look at what the right oven can unlock for your business.
