History

T. Marzetti started out as an Italian restaurant in Columbus, Ohio, started by Teresa and Joseph Marzetti, recent Italian immigrants, in 1896. Teresa's opening credo was:

"We will start a new place and serve good food. At a profit if we can, at a loss if we must, but we will serve good food."[citation needed]

Marzetti's became a local favorite especially among Ohio State University students, and grew to become a four star restaurant.

Customers particularly consumed Teresa's Creamy Coleslaw and French dressings. By 1955, the dressings had become so renowned[citation needed] that the upstairs kitchen of the restaurant became a full-scale factory. Thus the Marzetti brand of salad dressings found its way into grocery stores throughout Ohio.

After Teresa Marzetti's death in 1972, the restaurant closed, but the factory continued operation.

Today

As the Specialty Food Group of Lancaster Colony Corporation, Marzetti has plants across the United States that make an expanded family of quality food products. Each reflects Teresa Marzetti's original, handwritten pledge of excellence and "good food".

Marzetti today has 5 "Number One Brands", Marzetti in Fruit Dips, New York Brand in Frozen Garlic Breads, Sister Schubert's in Frozen Rolls and Biscuits, Romanoff in Retail Caviar, and Reames in Frozen Noodles, and has a leadership position in every category it does business in.

Marzetti is also frequently noted in the celiac community for its extensive list of Gluten-Free products - 188 Products long as of 2010.
