From Italy to Thailand: The Story of GRANO’s Artisan Bakery Revolution

Four Founders, One Vision

GRANO was created by four professionals with decades of combined international experience in the food industry. Each founder brings unique expertise, united by one mission: to raise the standard of bread, pizza, and bakery solutions in Thailand.

• A master pizzaiolo, trained in Italy and seasoned through years of work across Europe, Australia, Mexico, and Asia.

• A bakery consultant and sourdough expert, with worldwide experience from the United States to the Middle East and across Asia, specializing in long fermentation and advanced baking techniques.

• An Italian chef, bringing creativity, flavor balance, and the know-how to craft memorable dishes.

• A restaurant owner, with deep knowledge of hospitality, operations, and customer expectations.

This unique mix of skills allows GRANO to combine artisan craftsmanship with the real-life demands of professional kitchens.

From Frankie’s Inn to GRANO

Part of the team behind GRANO is also behind Frankie’s Inn, a renowned Italian restaurant and pizzeria in Pattaya. Frankie’s was awarded Best Pizzeria in Thailand 2025 by Gambero Rosso, earning the prestigious recognition of 2 Slices.

That success proved one thing: when you combine technique, passion, and premium ingredients, customers notice—and they come back. GRANO was born to extend that same philosophy into the HoReCa sector across Thailand.

Our Philosophy

The name GRANO means grain in Italian—the foundation of bread. For us, it represents a commitment to tradition, innovation, and uncompromising quality.

We believe:

• 🌾 Bread and pizza should be made with premium unrefined flours.

• ⏳ Slow fermentation is the key to flavor, texture, and digestibility.

• 🔥 Every product should balance artisanal soul with professional consistency.

Artisan. No Compromise.

Unlike industrial bakery suppliers, GRANO never cuts corners. Each product is crafted with techniques that respect tradition but are optimized for efficiency in modern kitchens.

Our range includes:

• Pizza bases – from Neapolitan to Teglia, Pala, and Pinsa.

• Burger buns – soft, buttery, and designed for premium menus.

• Focaccia & schiacciata – versatile breads for gourmet sandwiches.

• Sourdough loaves – authentic, nutritious, and easy to serve.

Our Mission in Thailand

Thailand’s dining scene is growing fast. Tourists, expats, and locals expect authentic flavors, innovation, and quality. GRANO helps cafés, hotels, and restaurants meet that demand with reliable, artisan bakery solutions that save time, reduce costs, and elevate menus.

We’re not just suppliers—we’re partners for growth, offering products that make it easier for operators to succeed.
