Barilla to Invest €100 Million in Southern Italy, Building New Pasta Hub in Foggia
Italian food group says the Puglia facility will become a strategic production and logistics hub, with new jobs expected.
Italian pasta maker Barilla has announced plans to invest €100 million in southern Italy, with a new production hub set to be established in Foggia, in the Puglia region, according to ANSA.
The company said the Foggia site is intended to become a strategic hub within the wider Barilla group, though specific details on the scale of production or timeline for completion have not yet been disclosed, ANSA reported.
Barilla indicated that the investment is expected to create new jobs in the area, though the company did not specify the exact number of positions to be created.
The move represents part of Barilla's broader strategy to expand its footprint in southern Italy, a region historically linked to durum wheat cultivation, a key raw material used in pasta production.
Further details on the project, including construction timelines and operational plans for the new facility, are expected to be released by the company in the coming period.
