THIS IS US
FROM CRAFT TO BRAND
A German family business with Italian roots:
For the Giacobbe family of pizza bakers, pasta had been a daily passion for generations. Born in Italy and having emigrated to Bitburg, the brothers Litterio and Rocco made their first lasagnes in the 1980s in Bitburg in the Eifel region – carefully by hand and following traditional recipes.
In 1993 the craft project became a company: Rainer Nels, the German brother-in-law of the brothers, founded Giacobbe Pasta GmbH and thus laid the foundation for our business today. His enthusiasm for technology, efficiency and innovation joined the passion for pasta – a combination that shapes our success story to this day.
In 1997 the company moved to its current location on Daimlerstraße in Bitburg. Since then, production has been steadily expanded, the range broadened and processes modernised – with a clear focus on quality, reliability and progress.
At the end of 2023, after more than 30 years of active management, Rainer Nels handed over the leadership to Jakob Hübinger, who has been part of our company for many years and understands our philosophy as well as the needs of our customers in great detail. With his experience and a clear vision for continuous growth and sustainability, he is leading Giacobbe Pasta GmbH into the future.
WHAT MATTERS TO US
With the same passion with which the Giacobbe family once delighted their guests, we today cook high-quality frozen convenience pasta dishes in the classic way, following tried-and-tested recipes.
Our philosophy combines craftsmanship with modern requirements – for products that work reliably and prove themselves in everyday use.
In-house product development
We develop our recipes in-house – always with the goal of creating high-quality, practical solutions.
Handmade approach
Many steps are deliberately done by hand – for an authentic look, individual execution and taste with character.
Clean label
For all products in our standard range we consistently avoid flavour enhancers, yeast extracts, preservatives and palm fat – for transparent ingredient lists and honest enjoyment.
Quality from a single source
All production steps take place in-house. This ensures maximum control and consistently high quality.
Customer focus & partnership
We value close cooperation, listen carefully and stay flexible – for solutions that really fit.
Giacobbe Pasta is no coincidence – but the result of many years of experience, genuine passion and a team that takes responsibility. You can feel it – and you can taste it!
