Company items range includes, from traditional to organic, pizzas, pinsas and focaccias both for retail market and professional use. Leader in the domestic market, thanks to its strong relationships with main Mass Market Retailers and Food Service players, the company started

Marco Setti, CEO of Valpizza commented: “This is a relevant acquisition with significant strategic potential for the Valpizza family adding another important milestone to its growth path. We are proud to team up with a leading player like La Pizza+1, which over the years had been able to innovate both in terms of product and process, achieving results that will contribute to the success of the Group”.
