Carozzi pasta

Carozzi is a cornerstone of the Latin American food industry, with a history dating back to 1898 when it was founded by Augusto Carozzi in Valparaíso, Chile. Initially starting as a pasta manufacturer, the brand has evolved into a massive multi-category food giant. Today, Empresas Carozzi S.A. operates extensively throughout the Southern Hemisphere, with significant manufacturing operations and market dominance in Chile, Peru, and Argentina.

While the brand is synonymous with pasta, its portfolio has diversified to include snacks, confectionery, beverages, and pet food under various sub-brands like Costa and Ambrosoli. The company remains a Chilean-owned entity, headquartered in San Bernardo, Santiago. It is recognized for its vertical integration, working with thousands of local farmers to source raw materials for its wide array of processed food products distributed globally.
