About Us
Saclà – A Taste of Italy Since 1939
Saclà is a family-owned Italian food company with roots in Asti, in the heart of Piedmont. Founded in 1939 by Secondo “Pinin” Ercole and his wife Pierina Campanella, Saclà began with a simple but innovative idea: preserving the abundance of locally grown vegetables so they could be enjoyed throughout the year.
More than 80 years later, that original passion for food, family and Italian culinary traditions continues to shape the company. Today, Saclà brings Italian flavours to consumers around the world, combining traditional recipes and Italian know-how with modern food production and innovation.
Our Italian Heritage
Saclà was born in Piedmont, one of Italy’s great gastronomic regions. From the beginning, the company has maintained a strong connection with the land, its ingredients and the culinary traditions of Italy.
What started with preserved vegetables and olives gradually developed into a broad portfolio of Italian-inspired foods. Today, Saclà’s range includes pesto sauces, pasta sauces, olives, preserved vegetables, antipasti and sauces, bringing the flavours of the Mediterranean to everyday meals.
A Family Tradition
Saclà remains closely connected to its family heritage. Across three generations, the company has continued to build on the vision of its founders while adapting to changing consumer tastes and food trends.
The company’s philosophy is based on preserving the authenticity of Italian flavours while continually looking for new ways to make food more enjoyable. This combination of tradition and innovation has helped Saclà develop from a local Italian food producer into an international brand.
From Italy to the World
Saclà’s Italian food expertise has travelled far beyond Piedmont. The company began expanding internationally during the 1990s, establishing a presence in markets including the United Kingdom, France, Germany and the United States. Today, Saclà products are enjoyed in more than 70 countries around the world.
The company’s international growth has allowed consumers around the world to experience Italian flavours while Saclà continues to remain firmly rooted in its Italian heritage.
