Fiocchi of America has extended its relationship as a key partner with the Outdoor Stewards of Conservation Foundation (OSCF). The company has been producing quality ammunition for nearly 150 years and has contributed substantial funding through the Wildlife Restoration Act since the 1950s. Fiocchi also supports many conservation-focused nonprofit organizations, including OSCF.
“Outdoor Stewards of Conservation Foundation is on the cutting edge of communications and programs that move the needle for wildlife conservation,” said Christian Hogg of Fiocchi. “We are proud to continue our support of them and encourage folks to learn more about their efforts.”
Fiocchi’s support allows for the expansion of OSCF communications, such as the “Keepers of the Wild” public service announcement and programs including “Come With!” In addition, the company was an early adopter of “Fill A Bag While Filling Your Tag” program, which distributes reusable, biodegradable bags to enthusiasts to fill with trash they find when hunting, fishing, trapping, target shooting or enjoying other outdoor activities.
“From personal experience, I can attest that Fiocchi’s Golden and Flyway shotshell line gets the job done for all types of winged game, and their Enviro Shield technology connects with my passion for conservation,” said OSCF Executive Director Jim Curcuruto. “Outdoor Stewards could not be more appreciative to have Fiocchi ammunition as a key Partner in Conservation.”
Since 1983, Fiocchi of America has been based in Ozark, Mo. As a stand-alone, U.S.-based arm of the greater Fiocchi global brands, Fiocchi of America and Baschieri & Pellagri USA continue to integrate and launch new products directed towards the U.S. market. They are part of the Czechoslovak Group (CSG), owned by Czech entrepreneur Michal Strnad. With key manufacturing plants in the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Spain, Italy, India, Great Britain and the United States, CSG exports its products worldwide.
