The history of Rinieri’s family has begun in 1920 in Predappio, when Olinto Rinieri started the profession of blacksmith: a licence dated in 1922 is jealously preserved in the factory.

In 1944 the small workshop was turned into a factory by Ambrogio Rinieri, ensuring the tradition of the family. From the beginning the company has been characterized by a strong family nature and a deep feeling of belonging, passing from father to son. In 1945 the wife Augusta Zanetti joined Ambrogio Rinieri. After the Second World War in Italy there was a huge need of mechanization and Rinieri became involved in the requirements of that time.

In 1967 the company moved to Forlì. The next year, while the factory was not yet completed, Ambrogio died and Augusta, mother of four children, was left alone at the head of the company with 14 workers. In those years the effort of her two brothers: Romano e Gino Zanetti, was very important. In 1973her daughter and son Margherita and Carlo Rinieri and her son in law Fabrizio Tassinari became part of the company.
In 1978 the company became “sas” and during the big agricultural crisis in the 80’s, it enlarged its production including shelving for industrial warehousing. In 1990 Mrs. Zanetti left the company to the “young people”. Ten years later Rinieri sas became Rinieri srl and the production was concentrated on equipment for vineyards and orchards increasing the range of products. A few years later Rinieri introduced new types of machinery for road maintenance and soil working.

In the following years, new categories of machines for green maintenance and soil cultivation are introduced and thanks to new hires in the commercial department, the abroad markets and the possibilities for the company are also expanded. It is thanks to the new emerging countries that help us to continue with the years of the crisis, where the Italian and European agricultural market has come to a severe halt.

Today the company can count on an export basin of over 50 countries from South America to Japan, from Canada to New Zealand; participating every year, with its machinery, at the most important events and fairs in the wine, fruit and green maintenance sectors, establishing itself as a Made in Italy brand recognized for quality and professionalism.
A central point that has allowed the company to establish itself in the world panorama of the construction of agricultural machinery is the possibility of offering the widest range of different products, over 70 types of machinery with more than 250 models, adapting to all customer needs.
The products are entirely designed by our technical office and produced internally in the turning, milling, laser cutting, painting and carpentry departments.

Today we are more than 100 employees, we occupy an area of over 30,000 m² of which 10,000 of buildings, producing more than 3800 machines every year ... but we still want to grow while keeping the Made in Italy style unchanged.
