Plasmon is Italy's most iconic brand in the early childhood nutrition sector. Founded in Milan in 1902 by Cesare Scotti, the brand was built around the use of 'pure plasmon' (milk protein) as a foundational ingredient for growth-focused nutrition. For over a century, the brand has been synonymous with the 'Oasi nella Crescita' (Oasis in Growth) philosophy, which emphasizes a controlled supply chain and high-quality ingredients specifically tailored for infants.
While the brand is deeply rooted in Italian heritage and continues to manufacture its products primarily in Italy (notably at its factory in Latina), its ownership has transitioned through several global food conglomerates. Originally an independent Italian venture, it was acquired by the H.J. Heinz Company in 1963. Following the 2015 merger of Heinz and Kraft, Plasmon became part of the Kraft Heinz portfolio.
The brand remains the market leader in Italy, producing everything from its signature 'Biscotto Plasmon' to homogenized fruit, meat, and grain-based baby foods. It continues to be managed as a premium subsidiary within the Kraft Heinz international division, maintaining its distinct Italian identity and specialized production standards.
