Barilla Integrale Penne Rigate

Barilla Integrale Penne Rigate is a premium whole-grain pasta product that represents the heritage of the world's leading pasta manufacturer. The brand was founded in 1877 by Pietro Barilla Sr. in Parma, Italy, starting as a small bread and pasta shop. Over several generations, the Barilla family transformed the business into a global leader in the food industry, known for its commitment to the Mediterranean diet and sustainable agricultural practices.

Today, Barilla remains a privately owned company, still headquartered in Parma and steered by the fourth generation of the Barilla family: brothers Guido, Luca, and Paolo. While the company operates production sites globally—including major facilities in the United States, Greece, and Turkey to serve local markets—products like the Integrale line often emphasize their 100% Italian durum wheat sourcing and traditional Italian production methods. The brand is recognized globally not only for its pasta but also for its sauces and bakery products under various subsidiaries.
