Which brands of pasta are made in Canada?

7 of the 8 top brands of pasta we scored are made in Canada, across 19 products on fyiCanada. Brands with the strongest Canadian roots come first, so a famous name with weak Canadian ties doesn’t get the top spot. How the fyiCanada score works.

Canadian-made, domestic & imported inputs (Montreal, Quebec)

Head office in Montreal, QuebecFounded 1867

Catelli is Canada's long-running dry pasta brand, started in Montreal in 1867, and Catelli Montreal still runs a plant there. Barilla Group, a family company in Parma, Italy, bought Catelli, Lancia and Splendor from Ebro Foods in 2021. So the box on a Canadian shelf is made here, while the owner is Italian.

Frequently Asked Questions About Canadian Pasta

What pasta is made in Canada?

Italpasta is made in Brampton, Ontario from 100 percent Canadian wheat. Primo is made in Toronto from Canadian amber durum milled on site. Catelli and Lancia are made at Catelli Montreal in Quebec, though Barilla of Italy owns those two. Nature's Farm dries egg pasta in Steinbach, Manitoba, and Delloy mixes noodles in Warman, Saskatchewan. Barilla's own brand is mostly imported.

Which pasta brands are Canadian?

Italpasta Limited is a family-owned Brampton company. Primo belongs to Sun-Brite Foods of Kingsville, Ontario. Nature's Farm is Hermann and Sheryl Grauer's Steinbach farm. Delloy Pasta is run by John and Kim Reimer in Warman. Catelli started in Montreal in 1867 but is now Barilla-owned. A Canadian-owned brand and a Canadian-made brand are not the same thing.

Is Barilla pasta Canadian?

No. Barilla is owned by the Barilla family from Parma, Italy. Most Barilla pasta on Canadian shelves is made in Ames, Iowa and Avon, New York, with some packs labelled Made in Italy. Barilla Canada does sell Catelli and Lancia, which are made in Montreal. The blue box itself is the import.

Is Catelli pasta Canadian?

Partly. Catelli Montreal still runs a plant in Montreal, Quebec, and classic boxes photographed on catelli.ca say Made in Canada. Barilla Group of Parma, Italy bought Catelli, Lancia and Splendor from Ebro Foods in 2021. So the pasta is made here. The owner is Italian. Wheat origin is not named on the classic pages.

What are the best Italian pasta brands in Canada?

If Italian means owned in Italy, Barilla is the grocery name people search, and it is imported. Catelli and Lancia are Italian-owned now but made in Montreal. Italpasta is the other way around: Italian family roots, Canadian-owned, made in Brampton from Canadian wheat. Primo is Toronto-made under Ontario's Sun-Brite, not an Italian parent.
