The company’s history dates back 50 years; in 1966 the founder of the family, Vincenzo Carollo, opened the pastry shop “Miramare” in the Sicilian town of Carini, next to the historic and mysterious castle. The shop started as a family business, but quickly became hugely successful in catering and desserts, and eventually turned to exporting delicacies, meals and desserts outside of the region. The family started with cruise lines, cafeterias, and airport restaurants throughout Italy. Day-by-day, always with the same passion, and quality ingredients, the company continued to grow, and soon began serving meals on Italian and European airlines. A proud family business, that has been passed down three generations, while continuing to share the dream to all of Europe and worldwide markets.

Inclusion. Inclusion is an important element to fostering a friendly environment in the sky. With 1 in 10 adults and 1 in 13 children suffering from food allergies, odds are that 10 or more people on each flight can’t eat the complimentary snacks provided. This creates unintentional alienation on the airline’s part. As society continues to trend in the positive, inclusive direction, airlines need to be conscious not only of making people feel welcome, but seen. That’s where McYoung Foods comes in.
