Bertolli Tradizionale Sugo per Pasta

Bertolli is a world-renowned brand synonymous with Italian culinary heritage. Founded in 1865 by Francesco Bertolli in Lucca, Tuscany, the brand initially gained fame for its premium olive oil before expanding into sauces and spreads. The 'Tradizionale Sugo per Pasta' shown is specifically formulated with 100% sun-ripened Italian tomatoes and extra virgin olive oil.

The brand's ownership history is complex due to various divestments. While the olive oil division is owned by Deoleo, the pasta sauce and food business was acquired by Mizkan Holdings in 2014. Manufacturing for the European market, specifically for products labeled 'Prodotto in Italia', typically remains centered in Italy to maintain the authentic quality associated with the brand's Tuscan roots.
