San Remo works to combine classic pasta making traditions with modern technology to meet market trends, a combination that Erik de Roos, Chief Marketing Officer, believes helps them to continue to provide high quality, innovative products for consumers.

“We are thrilled with this award, it is a fantastic result for the brand and demonstrates the quality of innovation that our Pulse Past product embodies”
