What Fideos Rivoli does

Fideos Rivoli (legal name Fábrica de Fideos Rívoli S.A.) is a privately held Argentine dry pasta manufacturer founded in June 1997, headquartered in Banda del Río Salí, Tucumán. The company operates a 13,000 sqm covered industrial plant located 6 km from San Miguel de Tucumán, equipped with Italian industrial machinery, ultra-high temperature processing technology, fully automatic packaging lines, and a solvent-less lamination packaging system. It runs 5 production lines with an installed capacity of 8,750 kg/hour (210 tons/day), producing more than 35 pasta models across five families (Guiseros, Soperos, Moños, Largos, Nidos) under four sub-brands (Rivoli, Cotella, Chicago, Ricatto), with Ricatto positioned as a premium natural-ingredients line.

The company is vertically integrated through a wholly-owned flour mill (Molino Harinero) using Swiss technology with 7 floors, 42 silos, and a wheat-processing capacity of 350 tons/day — one of the largest mills in Northern Argentina. Fideos Rivoli holds ISO 9001 certification from IRAM-IQNET, supporting quality assurance for both domestic and export markets.

Fideos Rivoli generates revenue by manufacturing and commercializing dry pasta products (and potentially surplus flour) primarily through retail and wholesale channels across 14 Argentine provinces, with export operations in Chile and Bolivia. Pricing is not publicly disclosed. Its primary customer segment is the general Argentine consumer purchasing pasta for household consumption; marketing is conducted through Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, a recipe-driven content site, and WhatsApp-based customer service. Ownership structure, management team, and financial results are not publicly disclosed.
