About Charles Antona – Corsica Gastronomia

Charles Antona founded Corsica Gastronomia in Ajaccio in 1991, driven by a passion for his island’s culinary heritage and a determination to produce in Corsica using local ingredients. Today the factory holds ISO 22000 and FSSC 22000 food safety certifications and the PME+ responsible business label, and has become the leading producer of Corsican delicatessen specialties. Every product is made without colourings, preservatives or artificial flavours — just the authentic scents of the Corsican sea, mountains and maquis.

Raw materials are sourced primarily from carefully selected local farming partners, ensuring genuine provenance and traceability from field to jar. Where specific protected designations exist — such as PDO Corsican clementine, PDO Corsican honey, or PDO veal — these certified ingredients are central to the recipe, giving each product its unique character and connection to the island. As Charles Antona himself said: before the selling of a product, there is its history and its origin.
