The salumeria originated in Italy and dates to the Middle Ages.^[1][7] Historically, salumerieinBologna, Italy, did not produce their own meats.^[1] They selected meats and other products such as pasta, olives and cheeses from local purveyors.^[1] These purveyors worked in a guild system that was created by the signori in Bologna, the city's rulers, in a system that dates to the Middle Ages.^[1] Purveyors for salumeria products included the salaroli, which controlled the salt industry, who salted the pork, which was then shipped to the lardaioli, a guild that sold the pork.^[1] The lardaioli also produced soap and candles from the pork lard they would receive.^[1] This guild system was eliminated by Napoléon Bonaparte around the time of the turn of the 19th century.^[1]
