Fratelli Saclà S.p.A. is a multinational Italian food company founded by Secondo Ercole and his wife Piera Campanella in Asti, Piedmont, in north-west Italy in 1923.

Saclà focuses its international product range primarily on pasta sauces, notably pesto, alongside a smaller selection of canned vegetables. In Italy, Saclà features a wider range of products including both canned vegetables and various pestos, which are the only pasta sauces offered domestically.

As of 2024, Saclà which is still run by the funding family, with a current CEO from the third generation, Chiara Ercole, daughter of Lorenzo and granddaughter of the founders,^[1] is part of the consortium company Almaverde Bio Italia Srl specialized in the production of organic products.^[2]

Founded in Asti, Italy, in 1923 as SALPA ("Stabilimento Astese Lavorazione Prodotti Alimentari"), the company initially focused on marketing the surplus production of vegetables harvested in abundance in the Tanaro Valley.^[3]

In 1939, the company rebranded as SACLÀ ("Società Anonima Commercio e Lavorazione Alimentari"). Under the leadership of founder Secondo Ercole, it expanded its product range and flourished, becoming one of Italy's big food companies.

In 1977, the name of the company changed, becoming "Fratelli Saclà", with reference to the founder's two sons, Carlo and Lorenzo, who had long been part of the family business.

Sacla has been present in the United Kingdom since 1991. The Saclà product in UK range includes pestos, big bold Italian sauces, intense pastes, risotto sauces, free from, whole cherry tomato sauces and antipasti.^[4] In 2009 Saclà teamed up with Lawrence Dallaglio to produce a new range of pasta sauces called Dallaglio by Saclà. In 2011 Saclà launched a range of fresh pesto, pasta sauces and pasta to the chilled cabinet.

The Sacla' family has fitted solar panels on the roof of one of the main buildings. Most Saclà products are packed in glass so are fully recyclable.^[10]
