About La Molisana
La Molisana is one of Italy's most prestigious pasta brands, founded in 1912 in Campobasso in the Molise region. Now Italy's fifth-largest pasta producer, the company represents four generations of family expertise in selecting and milling the finest Italian durum wheat to create exceptional pasta. The brand's name celebrates its origins in Molise, considered the true cradle of traditional Southern Italian pasta making. The factory sits at 730 metres altitude in the heart of this pristine mountain region, where clean air and spring water create ideal conditions for pasta production that have been recognised for centuries. La Molisana uses exclusively 100% Italian durum wheat sourced from Molise, Abruzzo, Puglia, Lazio, and Marche - regions with long traditions of growing premium grains. This commitment to Italian wheat and traditional production methods sets the brand apart from mass-market pasta that often uses imported grain. The company's heritage spans two families: the Carlone family who founded the original pastificio in the early 1900s, and the Ferro family whose mills have operated since 1910. Giuseppe Ferro Jr's acquisition of La Molisana in 2011 united these traditions, creating a vertically integrated producer controlling everything from grain selection to finished pasta. Today La Molisana exports to over 80 countries worldwide, bringing authentic Molise pasta traditions to UK kitchens.
