In the past it was the Piromallis with the legendary don Mommo Piromalli, who was seen as the boss of the bosses. He was the head of the 'ndrangheta tirrenica. Don Antonio Macrì was the head of 'ndrangheta jonica.
According to the boss Saverio Mammoliti they needed the trust and the approval of three bosses Piromalli, Macrì and Paolo Violi in Canada.


Was there any ndrangheta clan that was/is as powerful as the Zaza clan, clans in the casalesi, Nuvolettas or Alfieri? From what I’ve seen online, they seemed to be very profitable and very powerful in the 70s, 80s and 90s. I’m sure they still are to this day.
