Carlo
Oronato CATELLI establishes
Canada's first pasta plant in Old Montreal. CATELLI's
first products were hand-made vermicelli and macaroni.
|
 |
Mechanization
allows CATELLI to expand
the product line to include spaghetti and unique, breakthrough
pasta shapes.
|
 |
The
CATELLI plant moves to
Notre Dame East, Montreal, where it continues to this day
as a recognizable landmark in Montreal's East End. Canned
spaghetti sauce is added to the product portfolio.
|
 |
To
better service Western Canadian needs, a second CATELLI
plant is opened in Lethbridge, Alberta.
|
 |
CATELLI
is the first manufacturer to introduce glass-packed spaghetti
sauces.
|
 |
The
famous "CATELLI Rainbow"
is created - a sunshine symbol designed to represent a wide
variety of pasta cuts. Although updated over the years,
the "CATELLI Rainbow"
logo remains an icon of quality and variety among Canadian
consumers.
|
 |
CATELLI
installs the largest and most advanced pasta line in North
America (Montreal) to keep up with increased consumer demand
for pasta products.
|
 |
CATELLI
answers Canadians' nutritional needs by being the first to
enrich its pasta products.
|
 |
CATELLI
Express oven-ready lasagne
and cannelloni help Canadians quickly prepare what were traditionally
time-consuming pasta dishes.
|
 |
In
response to consumer calls for even healthier products, CATELLI
launches "Healthy Harvest"
- a line of whole wheat added fibre products.
|
 |
Spurred
on by growth south of the border of premium, specialty pastas,
CATELLI is the first
to introduce specialty flavoured pastas under the brand
name CATELLI "Bistro".
These flavour-packed pastas add contemporary flair and "entertainability"
to pasta dishes.

Committed
to providing healthy choices for Canadians, CATELLI
is a proud participant in the Heart and Stroke Foundation
of Canada's Health Check program. The Health Check program
is an education program that helps consumers make healthy
food choices at the grocery store.
