Leggo's is a historic Australian brand with roots dating back to 1894, when Henry Madren Leggo began selling vinegar, pickles, and sauces to gold miners in Bendigo, Victoria. Over more than a century, the brand transitioned from a family-run business to a national icon, specifically becoming synonymous with tomato-based pasta sauces and pastes.

The product is proudly manufactured in Australia, utilizing Australian-grown tomatoes, as indicated by the 'AUS Grown' labeling on the packaging. This commitment to local sourcing has been a core part of its brand identity in the Australian market.

Today, Leggo's is owned by Simplot Australia, which is a subsidiary of the J.R. Simplot Company, a major American agricultural and food processing corporation based in Idaho. Despite its American ownership, Leggo's continues to operate with a strong focus on Australian manufacturing and heritage.
