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.
