Pasta Montana adds lasagna, buys Los Angeles company
Pasta Montana http://www.pastamontana.com/ is buying a Los Angeles-based pasta company and expanding production at the Great Falls plant.
The acquisition gives Pasta Montana a well-known brand name, Costa Pasta, with clout in the upscale restaurant industry, said Pasta Montana President Anthony Flagg.
"Costa Pasta will operate as a division of Pasta Montana," he said. "All of our products will be made in Great Falls."
A new production line is being built to increase capacity and make lasagna, an additional product for the plant. Six to eight employees will be added to Pasta Montana’s 75 in Great Falls, and the company will maintain some personnel and an office in Los Angeles.
"We (Pasta Montana) come into this deal with a strong, low-cost operation to make a high-quality product," Flagg said.
