Ebro Foods, S.A. is a Spain‐based global food company that specializes in the production, marketing and distribution of rice, pasta and value‐added culinary products. The company’s portfolio includes well‐known brands such as Panzani in France, Riviana and Minute® Rice in the United States, Tilda® in the United Kingdom, and Garofalo® in Italy. In addition to its core rice and pasta offerings, Ebro Foods produces sauces, dressings and ready‐to‐cook meal kits under various regional labels, catering to both retail consumers and the foodservice sector.
Tracing its roots to sugar‐refining enterprises in 19th century Spain, the modern Ebro Foods emerged following a series of strategic restructurings and spin-offs in the early 2000s. The company bolstered its international footprint through marquee acquisitions, notably the purchase of the Panzani pasta business from Danone in 2009 and the U.S. rice specialist Riviana Foods in 2011. These transactions helped diversify its product mix and establish a balanced presence across mature and high‐growth markets.
Headquartered in Madrid, Ebro Foods operates production facilities and commercial subsidiaries across Europe, North America, Asia and Africa. Its network of mills, factories and research centers focuses on innovation in grain processing, quality control and sustainable sourcing. The company serves a broad customer base, ranging from large supermarket chains and industrial food processors to independent grocers and foodservice operators, leveraging an extensive logistics platform to deliver products in over 50 countries worldwide.
