Prego pasta sauce

Prego is a prominent American brand of pasta sauce that first hit the market in 1981. It was developed by Campbell Soup Company as a direct competitor to other leading pasta sauce brands, using a recipe that emphasized a thick consistency and savory herb blend. Since its inception, the brand has expanded from classic marinara to including meat-flavored, cheese-based, and specialty veggie sauces.

While the brand is synonymous with Italian-inspired cuisine in North America, its manufacturing is concentrated primarily in the United States, utilizing large-scale production facilities owned by its parent company. The brand's ownership has remained stable within the Campbell Soup Company (now known as Campbell's) portfolio for over four decades, positioned as one of their core beverage and meal brands. For the Mexican market, products are often imported or distributed via local subsidiaries of the global Campbell's network.
