Primo Thick & Zesty Garlic & Herb Pasta Sauce

Primo is a household name in Canada, widely recognized for its deep roots in the Canadian food industry. The brand was established in 1954 in Windsor, Ontario, by Giuseppe Vitale, an Italian immigrant who sought to bring authentic Mediterranean staples to North American kitchens. Since its inception, Primo has committed to high-quality ingredients, often utilizing Canadian-grown tomatoes to produce its wide array of pastas and sauces.

Today, Primo is part of the Primo Foods division under the ownership of Sun-Brite Foods Inc. The brand maintains its strong Canadian identity, with its primary manufacturing facilities located in Ruthven, Ontario. This regional focus ensures that the products remain deeply connected to local agriculture and the community. As a leading manufacturer of shelf-stable tomato products and pastas, Primo continues to be a staple in Canadian pantries, celebrated for its heritage and its dedication to local production and ownership.
