Panzani is a French brand of pasta. Since 2005, it has been a subsidiary of Ebro Foods.[1]
Overview
The brand was started by Jean Panzani in Parthenay in 1950.[1] In the 1950s, he sold pasta in cellophane whereas other companies used cardboard.[1] From 1960 to 1964, it merged with La Lune and Régia Scaramelli.[1] It was in the 1960s that it became the market leader in pasta wholesalers in France. In 1964, Roland Barthes analysed a commercial by Panzani in his essay entitled 'The Rhetoric of the Image', suggesting Panzani was trying to come across as Italian.[2][3][4][5]
In 1973, it was bought by Groupe Danone.[1] Its TV commercials featured André Aubert as Don Patillo, a namesake for Don Camillo, made famous by Fernandel.[1]
In 1997, it was bought by Paribas Affaires Industrielles.[1] In 2002, it bought Lustucru, another French brand of pasta.[1]
In April 2005, it was bought by Ebro Foods.[1]
