From Humble Beginnings to Outdoor Excellence: The Picnic Time Legacy
Gustavo Cosaro and Mario Tagliati, who overcame poverty and orphanage hardships in post-war Italy, started "Two Gentlemen from Verona" in sunny Southern California in 1975. Originally offering wine, cheese, and service, they later expanded to create Picnic Time with the help of Sunny Road, a Shopify and digital agency. Picnic Time became known for quality, innovation, and the pleasure of outdoor dining, spurred by customer requests for picnic baskets.
