Carluccio’s Rolls Out Exclusive Range At Sainsbury’s

Carluccio’s, owned by Boparan Restaurant Group, has launched a new range of meals, pizza, pasta and sauces exclusively for Sainsbury’s in association with 2 Sisters Food Group.

The range has been developed by the head chef of Carluccio’s, Eric Chauvet, and the 2 Sisters Food Group Meal Solutions innovation team.

The recipes used in the range remain true to founder Antonio Carluccio’s ethos of ‘minimum of fuss, maximum of flavour’, the company noted.

Sarah Goodhew, NPD and innovation director at 2 Sisters Food Group Meal Solutions, said, “Our teams across the UK have relished the opportunity to recreate best-selling restaurant dishes for consumers to enjoy at home.

“Recipe development, in partnership with Carluccio’s head chef Eric Chauvet, has brought together expertise in chilled meals – from sourcing authentic ingredients to creating bold yet familiar flavours for each dish that matches the experience and ethos of the restaurants.”

“In our meal solutions division, we’re always seeking new ways to demonstrate our expertise in preparing food to be enjoyed at home, and partnering with this well-loved and trusted brand has given us the opportunity to further grow our offer.”
