Riso Gallo is one of the oldest rice-growing companies in Italy. The company started out back in 1856 with a factory in Genoa that processed imported paddy rice and exported it to South America.
Its success and increasing experience in the field encouraged the company to concentrate on Italian crops, and so in 1926 the Genoa factory was transferred to Robbio Lomellina in the heart of the province of Pavia, one of the most well known rice-growing regions.
At the same time, another factory was opened in Argentina to meet the requirements of the South American market. And Argentina is precisely where the name Riso Gallo (Arroz Gallo) was coined.
In the 1940s, an intuitive hunch marked a new chapter in the history of the company and the cockerel symbol was created: since illiteracy was still widespread in Argentina, the company decided to identify the different varieties of rice by using images of animals. A giraffe, a tiger, an eagle, an elephant and a cockerel appeared on all the sacks of rice. The cockerel, which identified the best variety, soon became the company symbol and synonymous with the high quality of i. products. At the same time, the company began to sell rice in retail packets.
Risotto, a classic Italian dish, first created over two centuries ago, has become a symbol of Italian haute cuisine in restaurants throughout the world and evokes the image of sophisticated, refined Italian cuisine.
Riso Gallo's mission has always been to spread the culture of rice and risotto throughout the World by using innovation that constantly adapts to the needs of the modern consumer.
That's why, since the beginnings of its activity, the company has been working with specialised reasearch centers to develop the finest varieties of rice that satisfy the market demand for high-quality, genuine, tasty products that are quick and easy to prepare.
As stated above, the Riso Gallo brand was born in Argentina in the '40s, when rice was still sold loose. The company understands the importance of having a brand and starts packaging its products.
Riso Gallo launches a new product: parboiled rice, which, thanks to the natural method of steam processing (parboiling), shows a higher resistance to cooking. The result is a rice that meets the needs of customers who demand a rice easy to cook, with firm compact grains that don't stick together, always al dente and rich in vitamins, minerals and fibers. The Blond product line was born.
In 1990 Riso Gallo launches a line called Grandi Risi dal Mondo, 'Great rices from the World': five different exotic rice varieties that anticipate the hype for the ethnic and fusion cuisines.
In 1996 the company comes up with a worldwide new product: Chicchi Conditi, now call ed Risotti Pronti, al lowi ng those customers who don't have much time to enjoy a real risotto within only 12 minutes by just adding water.
sees the launch of Carnaroli del Pavese Gran Riserva, the best rice worldwide according to experts. This exceptional quality rice with large, full-bodied grains encompasses six generations of a passion and culture for rice.

Not only is this variety of rice able to retain a perfectly cooked al dente style, which makes it popular with chefs, but it also binds harmoniously with all ingredients, creating a perfect result.
In 2006 a new line sees the light Expresso: real risottos, already toasted, simmered with white wine and seasoned with stock, ready in just two minutes thanks to the steam sterilisation process.
