Our History

OVER 25 YEARS OF HISTORY

Matt is the historic brand of A&D SpA that was born in 1996 to satisfy the growing wellness needs of consumers in large-scale retail trade. In a short time, it conquered the leadership in the food supplements market and a leading position in Biofunctional Nutrition.

In 2010, the boundaries of nutrition were broadened to respond to emerging consumer wellness needs in a comprehensive and innovative way: the Matt cosmetics division was born.

MISSION

Matt is Nutrition and Well-being and is the “umbrella brand” that gathers different product categories under itself. It aims to express the maximum competence in the field of Food Supplements, Organic and Functional Nutrition and Cosmetics, offering innovative nutritional solutions for the consumer who has a positive and project-oriented approach in the search for their own wellbeing at any time of the day.

The Group's plants guarantee cutting-edge technologies in the production of Food Supplements in various forms of intake, Drinks, Juices and Vegetable Creams with ingredients from Organic farming, as well as producing galenic and generic medicines, cosmetic lines for skin care and cleansing.

In 2020, BFSpA , a joint stock company listed on the Italian organized Telematic Stock Market, at the head of a group of companies operating in the agro-industrial, livestock and innovative technological services sectors for operators in the agricultural sector. Among these, Bonifiche Ferraresi SpA Società Agricola which, with its 7,750 hectares (100% Italy, in Emilia, Tuscany, Sardinia, etc.), is the largest Italian agricultural company by Utilized Agricultural Area (SAU), joins the group.

From here a new Holding of the Group originated, called Progetto Benessere Italia Srl

In 2023, Laboratorio Chimico Farmaceutico Sella Srl, a company with more than 100 years of entrepreneurial history, joined the Group.
