BIAGIO'S
STORY
Biagio grew up in Pagani, a small urban town Pagani located in the province of Salerno in the Campania region of Italy. He is the eldest of 3 boys and his passion for baking started quite young, as early as eight or ten.
At 14. Biagio built his own little entrepreneurship! He began making homemade bomboloni and croissants in his childhood kitchen and would ride across town on his bicycle selling his delicious treats to the locals.
His cooking career advanced as he served in the Italian military as a personal chef for a high-level General.
​
While cooking or baking, his talent and promise for success was clear. Biagio's true passion and his goal in life is to make people happy through his creations!
Biagio always had aspirations of one day moving to America and opening his own bakery.
Returning home after his military commitment ended, Biagio was more determined to achieve his goals.

Biagio arrived in America and in three days found employment as a pastry chef. His new employers were pleased to find a talented pastry artist from their home country.

As the years went on, his experience and reputation working in different food establishments grew immensely. With extreme drive and perseverance, Biagio opened up his first wholesale bakery delivering fresh baked breads daily to local restaurants, delicatessens, pizza shops and more.
After 8 years of operating his wholesale business, his true dream came to fruition. In 2011, he opened Biagio's Italian Gourmet Specialties.
