Just about everybody loves pizza! And, just about all of the nation's pizza lovers - nearly 70 percent - choose MaMa Rosa's when they buy branded, refrigerated pizza for themselves or their families.

From its 158,000-square-foot production facility in Sidney, Ohio, MaMa Rosa's sells more than 3 million cases of pizza annually, distributing its products to more than 10,000 supermarkets, club stores, pharmacies and convenience stores throughout the United States and in Mexico. The $50 million company's value-oriented line includes nine products, including large pizzas for family meals and mini snack pizzas.

In addition to its MaMa Rosa's brand, the country's No. 1-selling branded, refrigerated pizza, the company produces refrigerated pizza products under the Mama Angelina's and Our Old Italian brand names. In 2008, the company introduced Lean Lifestyle(TM), a health-oriented frozen pizza line certified by the American Heart Association. MaMa Rosa's also co-packs for several of the largest food companies in the United States.

Mama Rosa's was founded in Sidney in 1979 under the name Gilardi Pizza Co. The company was purchased in October 2006 by Plaza Belmont, a private equity firm, and renamed MaMa Rosa's. Over the past 30 years, the company has grown through its ability to provide customers with a high quality product at a good value.
