Calabria, Italy natives, Francesco and Tommasina Rocchino came to South Philadelphia over 90 years ago. They raised a large family while working diligently to build two successful businesses. Rocchino & Sons corner deli & grocery store became legendary for grandmom's fresh pasta & sandwiches and a construction company led by my grandpop built many row houses in their beloved neighborhood with a great attention to detail and an emphasis on quality.
