The on-file website for this profile, oranfresh.com, is the official site of the Oranfresh® brand of citrus-juice vending and dispensing machines. According to Oranfresh’s own published company history, the Oranfresh brand originated in 1987 as a research project within Agriculture Industrial Development (A.I.D.), the agricultural-technology business founded in Catania in 1969 by Dr. Salvatore Torrisi. That same company history states that in 1998 A.I.D.’s agroindustrial activities were spun off into a separate company, Agroindustry Advanced Technologies (A.A.T.) S.p.A., which has since developed and marketed the Oranfresh brand and operates the oranfresh.com website. No source reviewed confirms that A.I.D. Agriculture Industrial Development S.r.l., the entity on file here, currently owns, operates or trades under the Oranfresh brand; its documented current activity is agricultural and forestry machinery manufacturing, not juice-vending equipment.

Shareholders
Shareholders of A.I.D. Agriculture Industrial Development S.r.l.
A.I.D. Agriculture Industrial Development S.r.l. is a private limited company (S.r.l.) and does not publish a shareholder or quota-holder register on any official or company-controlled source reviewed. Italy’s Camera di Commercio system holds the definitive record of quota holders for private S.r.l. companies through the visura camerale, but this record is available only on payment of an official search fee rather than through free public disclosure; a full, current visura for A.I.D. Agriculture Industrial Development S.r.l. was not obtained for this review. No shareholder name, quota percentage or effective date was located in the free-access sources reviewed as of September 2026.
Ultimate beneficial ownership
No ultimate beneficial owner could be verified for A.I.D. Agriculture Industrial Development S.r.l. Italy operates a centralised Registro dei Titolari Effettivi (beneficial-ownership register) within the Business Register, but public access to this register has been suspended for most requesters since a 22 November 2022 Court of Justice of the European Union ruling limited general public access to beneficial-ownership registers across EU member states; access is now generally restricted to parties that can demonstrate a qualifying interest, such as obliged anti-money-laundering entities, rather than being searchable by the general public. No beneficial-ownership chain for this company could therefore be reviewed or calculated.
Data availability
Shareholder and beneficial-ownership information for A.I.D. Agriculture Industrial Development S.r.l. is classified as Restricted: quota-holder records exist within the Italian Business Register but require a paid visura camerale, and the national beneficial-ownership register is not openly searchable following the 2022 EU-wide access restriction.

Officers
Directors and officers of A.I.D. Agriculture Industrial Development S.r.l.

A full record of current and former amministratori, including appointment and resignation dates, would require a paid visura camerale from the Registro delle Imprese, which was not obtained for this review. Separately, publicly available company histories of the related Oranfresh brand identify Dr. Salvatore Torrisi as the founder, in 1969, of the original Agriculture Industrial Development business in Catania; no source reviewed confirms whether he, or any other named individual, currently holds a director or administrator role specifically at A.I.D. Agriculture Industrial Development S.r.l., as distinct from the later-formed Agroindustry Advanced Technologies S.p.A.
