A Family Tradition of Pasta Making
Our story begins in Rome, Italy where Romolo Pede Sr. first learned the art of making handmade pasta. In 1963, Romolo carried his love for his Italian heritage and authentic Italian pasta recipes to America.
In 1967, Romolo Sr. started making his traditional Italian pasta here in the United States, resolving to use nothing but the finest ingredients available. Our family established Pede Brothers Italian Specialty Foods and opened our first storefront in Schenectady, N.Y.
Today, Pede Brothers remains family owned and operated. Romolo's children continue the family tradition of pasta making by combining the finest quality ingredients, traditional family recipes and the use of modern technology. Pede Brothers has been fortunate to provide loyal customers with Pede Brothers pasta products and other Italian specialty foods for over fifty years.
