History of San Remo
San Remo has epitomised the culture and tradition of pasta making since its inception in 1936, when it was founded by Luigi Crotti, the father of the present Chairman. Today, it remains a privately owned 100% Australian company.

From its earliest days the company grew rapidly and was the first manufacturer to support and foster supermarket distribution as this new shopping phenomenon became established and grew.

Manufactured in Australia, San Remo has offices and distribution centres in all main capital cities throughout Australia and New Zealand, and exports to 35 countries throughout the world. San Remo's manufacturing site in Adelaide combines the traditional Italian pasta making "know how" with the most modern technology. San Remo's Durum wheat mill is one of the largest and most sophisticated in the Australian/South-East Asian region, and was specially designed for the processing of Durum wheat.

San Remo contracts growers to grow its top quality Durum wheat, thus guaranteeing control over the quality and specifications of the wheat. This results in pasta of the highest quality, and ensures high standards of integrity.

Today, San Remo has a wide range of pasta products and sauces and also offers a range of "La Pasta" pasta and sauce side dishes.


Why Australian Durum wheat is sought after the world over
The island continent of Australia is arguably the world's most perfect place to grow clean, high quality wheat. The combination of long sunny days, pure rain, good earth, unsurpassed wheat growing experience and relentless quality control makes Australian wheat prized the world over.

San Remo has always been responsive to consumer needs and has developed an ever-increasing range of pasta products that has transformed pasta consumption over the last 20 years from an ethnic food to one of Australia's favourite meals.

San Remo, manufacturers of Australia's favourite pasta since 1936, is now a household name and a proud Australian product. San Remo. We're family.
