The story of Gragnano begins with a noble Roman “gens”: the “gens Grania”, holder of vast estates in this fertile land where they grow, then as now, the “sacred ear and the precious grape.”

Making pasta in Gragnano is an ancient form of art, that involves history, culture, patience, secrets, and traditions.

Pasta production saw its biggest development between the sixteenth and seventeenth century thanks to technological innovations (the mill with millstones) that provided a perfect hydraulic system necessary for the production. Pasta is still an artisanal product, handmade in the family in small quantities by craftsmen. During the next century, we saw the gradual transition from the small shop to a factory where there is still craftsmanship but on a larger scale. Larger tools, bigger places, a larger number of employees, and their greater specialization guarantee a greater amount of product maintaining handmade characteristics.

Pasta thus began to spread beyond the local area, conquering the palates with its unique characteristics.

I.G.P.
