About Pomì
Pomì was founded in 1982 in the province of Parma and
immediately became an icon thanks to its innovative
packaging— the carton brick, which makes the tomato sauce

chain, tomato traceability and sustainability of
production and transformation processes. In fact, Pomì tomatoes are
grown from selected seeds cultivated by members of the Consorzio
Casalasco del Pomodoro on over 7,000 hectares between Cremona,
Parma, Mantua and Piacenza, in Northern Italy. Pomì tomatoes are
100% Italian, cultivated to respect the environment and the health
of our consumers while bringing a burst of flavor to each dish.
