Caputo is a third-generation Italian family company that began in 1924, when Carmine Caputo returned to Italy from the United States to start a flour mill and pasta factory in Capua. Their milling process follows the ancient Neapolitan tradition, while using state-of-the-art technology and sourcing only the best, highest-quality Italian wheat every season. Due to their unwavering commitment to their values and great pride in the city and country they represent, Caputo has grown to become a leading brand of "00" flour in Italy and the United States.
