A Tavola! Srl

What A Tavola! Srl does

A Tavola! Srl is an Italian artisanal fresh pasta producer headquartered in Rivalta di Torino (Piedmont), founded in 1997 as a family business operating from a single market stall. The company manufactures more than 300 formats of fresh pasta, stuffed pasta, bronze-drawn pasta, egg tagliatelle, and handmade gastronomy products (lasagna, arancini, eggplant parmigiana), with stated daily output exceeding 4 metric tons and an industrial capacity of 10,000 kg/day referenced for large-scale retail supply. Production combines traditional craftsmanship — bronze-die extrusion for porous sauce-retaining surfaces, Italian durum wheat semolina, and DOP/Slow Food Presidia ingredients in the Handmade line — with modern food processing technologies including modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) extending shelf life to 21 days and refrigerated cold-chain logistics delivering within 12–48 hours across Italy.

The company serves four primary customer segments through distinct channels: (i) a network of 100+ affiliated neighborhood market resellers operating mobile stalls across Italy, France, Germany, Switzerland, and Belgium, supported by training, brand usage, refrigerated logistics, and initial financing with no entry fee; (ii) Ho.Re.Ca (hotels, restaurants, catering) via direct sales relationships with refrigerated delivery and seasonal product rotation; (iii) wholesalers and distributors purchasing in bulk with access to private label and customized product development; and (iv) large-scale retail (GDO) where the company provides industrial-scale capacity, modulated assortment systems, customized packaging, and private label solutions. Revenue streams therefore combine one-time product sales, recurring affiliate resupply, multi-year private label contracts, and event/catering services via an Ape food truck format. The firm is privately held, with no disclosed external investors and €10,000 fully paid share capital (the statutory minimum for an Italian Srl); it employs approximately 25 people at the Rivalta di Torino production facility and registered office in Turin.
