Althea S.p.A. was founded in Parma in 1932. In the 1950s and 60s, it established itself as one of the most dynamic companies in the Italian food industry, launching enormously successful and innovative products such as SUGORO (the first ready-made pasta sauce), FIORDAGOSTO and CREMIFRUTTO.
Purchased in the middle of the 1960s by Unilever, it was reacquired by Italian entrepreneurs at the beginning of the 1990s. In 1997, Althea S.p.A. was bought by DELFINO S.P.A. of Acerra (Naples).
A rapid period of economic integration and restructuring has allowed Althea S.p.A. to coordinate, from its headquarters in Parma, all of the commercial and research and development activities of Delfino-Althea, whose combined sales in 2004 reached a total of 52 million Euros. This financial record carried the firm into the ranks of the most important European companies of ready-made sauces.
