About Barilla
-------------
Though today Barilla is the world leader in pasta production, manufacturing over 4,000 tons of pasta daily in over 150
shapes and sizes, those who work with us continue to carry on the traditions of our founder, Pietro Barilla.
In 1877, Pietro opened a modest pasta shop on Via Vittorio Emanuele, a busy shopping street in the northern Italian
city of Parma, located in Emilia-Romagna, a region renowned for its cuisine and rich agricultural heritage. Pietro and
his son, Riccardo, worked side by side making fresh bread and pasta by hand. The signature sunshine-yellow, horse-drawn
carts would travel through the early morning streets of Parma, laden with fresh Barilla products. By the turn of the
century, her and son purchased a warehouse in Parma, which still stands on the same street—today named Viale Barilla.
Barilla logo From the beginning, product quality has been para for Barilla, a factor dependent on the superior
quality of the durum wheat flour, or semolina, used to make our pasta. Legend has it that Riccardo Barilla would dust
the sleeves of his black suit with the semolina. If no specks remained after he brushed it off, the flour was dry enough
and finely ground enough to use in Barilla pasta.
Today, Guido, Luca and Paolo Barilla, fourth-generation members of the Barilla family, carry on Pietro’s dedication to
tradition and excellence. At the heart of Barilla is a deep belief that pasta is more than just an ingredient; it is the
central thread that binds a culture and families.
We believe that sharing meals should be a joyful, convival experience. In everything we make, we express our commitment
to bringing that experience to families around the world.
