Pastificio Avesani

Pastificio Avesani, an historic manufacturer of a fresh pasta, fresh filled pasta, fresh potato gnocchi, considered a symbol of Italianity, is distinguishing itself on the market because it has enriched the traditional values of the fresh pasta, filled and not, with some competitive plus, which are absolutely advanced.

Passion for the product and gastronomic culture. By always operating on the basis of these criteria and constantly taking care of the high quality of its product range, the Pastificio Avesani – born in the Verona province in 1951 as a small family workshop – has been able to grow very quickly achieving a significant position on both the Italian and the international market. And this thanks to a mission based on the fresh “pasta” and to an ambitious program of technological development fully respecting traditional recipes and methods. This has brought as a result the introduction of very modern processes, the application of meticulous procedures of self-control as well as the constant monitoring of the raw materials and of the various steps of the production cycle in order to enable an industrial manufacture with the same care typical of the handicraft work.

Flavours of the past

Tradition and innovation merge in such a way that make the Avesani products unique and easily recognizable. During the years, the company evolved from the technical and dimensional point of view but still nowadays gets back to the recipes of the family tradition paying  high attention to the ingredients, from the thin “sfoglia” to the rich filling. The selection of particular wheat meals that make it possible for the pasta to keep compactness and roughness, the dough and the original filling, the exploitation of the organoleptic profile of every component give to all the products an excellent balance. The genuineness, the freshness and the intrinsic quality – granted by packaging every item in modified atmosphere with a 60-day-shelf-life – make the “Avesani pasta” be a guarantee for superior characteristics of elasticity and excellent results when cooked.

Fresh pasta for everyone’s taste

Innovation, creativeness and  tradition for a tasty daily menu. The offer of the Pastificio Avesani includes products and shapes of the traditional Italian cooking – sometimes made in an innovative way – which go well with any kind of sauce:  fresh filled pasta (“tortellini”, “tortelloni”, “ravioli”),  fresh egg pasta (“tagliatelle”, “bigoli”, “lasagna”, “maccheroncini”), “gnocchi” made with potatoes and gastronomical specialties able to please even the most demanding palates.

Among the best-sellers there are the “Nodini d’Amore”, that can be distinguished from any kind of other product for the peculiar shape of the fresh egg pasta having inside a small pearl of a very compact filling. Moreover – in order to meet the needs of a constantly more demanding market – in these years the company has set up an innovative range of bio-vegetarian products and has widened its traditional range with the new “Ravioli” with braise.

Mission towards the new

The way towards updating and growth keeps on going. Pastificio Avesani is an innovative propulsion in any possible field: from the very modern seat in Bussolengo opened in 2004 – which extends on ca. 8.000 sqm. and is based on the most sophisticated technology, granting a production capacity of more than 20.000 kg./day – to the quality certifications recently achieved (ISO 9001, BRC, IFS and, ISO 22000), from the more and more numerous kinds of products and shapes (proved by the recent increase of the fresh pasta without filling) to the renewed packaging, from the new business organization to the advanced logistic.

For a company like this that – starting from its establishment – is constantly growing, the objectives can only be ambitious: today the main focus is on the development of the sales through the retailers on the domestic market  and, most of all, on the increasing of the business abroad in order to help to spread also outside Italy the top quality Italian gastronomy.
