San Remo Bowties pasta

San Remo is a prominent Australian food brand, widely recognised as the country's leading pasta manufacturer. Founded in 1936 by Luigi Crotti, an Italian immigrant who settled in Adelaide, South Australia, the company has played a pivotal role in making pasta a staple of the Australian diet. The brand is famous for its iconic packaging featuring the 'San Remo Brothers' and its long-standing commitment to traditional Italian pasta-making techniques blended with modern technology.

Today, San Remo remains a 100% privately owned Australian family business, managed by the third generation of the Crotti family. The vast majority of its core dry pasta products, including the Bowties (Farfalle) variety, are manufactured at its state-of-the-art facility in Windsor Gardens, Adelaide. The company uses locally grown Australian durum wheat, which is processed in its own dedicated mill, one of the largest and most advanced in the Southern Hemisphere. While most of its standard pasta is produced in Australia, some specialty items, such as gluten-free or artisanal Italian lines, may be sourced from dedicated facilities in Italy.
