Botticelli Foods
Information
t all started with a dream sparked by a once in a lifetime opportunity.
In 2002, our founders, Joseph and Salvatore Asaro came across an opportunity to bring high-quality olive oil from the most exclusive regions in the Mediterranean to the tri-state market. This opportunity sparked the idea of creating an Italian food brand focused on flavor and quality products. Not knowing what to name their new brand, Joseph and Salvatore sat to brainstorm together, thinking of something meaningful and memorable.
They wanted to pay tribute to their ancestors' livelihood, rooted in farming and cultivating in Sicily, Italy. Their ancestors put a lot of time and effort into creating art with their food, and because of this, their recipes survived the test of time. Inspired by these generations-old recipes, Joseph thought of names that have also lasted the test of time. Famed artist Sandro Botticelli came to mind. Thus, Botticelli was born, bridging the gap between the art of Italian fine arts and The Art of Italian Flavor.
After successfully launching their olive oil line and growing it across the tri-state a new opportunity flourished across the desks of Botticelli. The opportunity to venture into a new growing category - Pasta Sauce. They focused on ensuring the sauces were dedicated to tradition and authenticity, so they sourced these pasta sauces straight from Italy and perfected each to taste as homemade as the sauce they grew up with in their Nonna's kitchen. Inspired by the family recipes, the Pasta Sauce line was created and quickly grew to become their staple lineup.
In the beginning of 2020, Salvatore's son Joseph joined the Botticelli Team. Together they crafted a new dream for Botticelli that paid tribute to its history: A goal to have Botticelli provide every home across America with a full mealtime experience to make lasting memories with those they love. Joseph quickly helped Botticelli become a national brand recognized across countless homes in every state.
While the company continues to grow rapidly, the goal remains the same-- to bring authentic Italian products made with quality ingredients to families across the world.
