Current and future needs inspire our work in offering: Personalisation: expressing and improving oneself through ‘my food’; Well-being: seeking healthier, fresher and more joyful solutions; ‘Convenience’: ensuring quality, availability, accessibility and immediacy.

Being the largest pasta producer in the world is a strong responsibility and to achieve this we select only the best quality durum wheat, grown in the most sustainable way, consistent with our mission “Good For You, Good For The Planet”. In 2016, we globally purchased 1,167,000 tonnes of durum wheat. Approximately 70% came from local suppliers located close to where we produce our pasta (Italy, US, Greece, Turkey, Russia).
