USA - Rozzi Famous Fireworks

Rozzi's Famous Fireworks has an impressive history dating back to 1895, when the company was founded in southern Italy. Shortly thereafter, Paolo Rozzi emigrated to the United States and settled in Pennsylvania. Today, Nancy Rozzi is the fifth generation to run the family business with dedication. Courage for new things, vibrancy, colour quality, complex images and perfect timing are just some of the characteristics that distinguish the team's fireworks. Most recently, the team successfully took part in the Danang International Festival in 2024.
