In the long history of the tomato, one of the Made in Italy industry symbols, Mutti has written an important chapter dedicated to the importance of quality and of an integrated supply chain. Italy remained, in 2016, the world’s third largest tomato producer behind California and China with 5.7 million tonnes, according to the WPTC International Legislation Commission data. Italy is known for the high added value of its products, manufacturing tradition, and proximity of its factories. In this scenario, Mutti has become the first Italian private player in the tomato processing industry, and the top Italian producer of tomato based products in terms of market value sales. Thanks to the investment in quality and valuable relations with suppliers, Mutti has become today a guarantee and a symbol of Italian excellence.
INTERNATIONAL MARKETS – Since 2011 the company’s turnover has doubled, reaching 234 million Euros in 2015, and exceeding 250 million Euros in 2016. The Parma based company is a reliable and solid name both in the Italian and in the international markets. The company, which operates in 83 countries around the world, makes one third of its revenues in foreign markets growing at an annual double digit rate. Mutti has its core market in France, where it is an established player and the leader in the tomato pulp sector. Sweden, Belgium, Austria, and Germany remain important markets for Mutti, which continues to expand its presence also in Australia, Japan, and in the USA.
ETHICAL VALUES – In 2016, Mutti also adopted a Code of Ethical Conduct to formalize, strengthen, and advance the values that are a natural part of its corporate model. The main issues are: research of the highest quality, a long-term vision, simplicity, respect and development of human resources, openness and transparency, environment protection. The goal is to keep on making responsible decisions by integrating sustainability practices in its business and corporate behaviour.
