New Investment in Pasta Chips Company

Pasta Chips announces a new investment from Advantage Capital Agribusiness Partners, LP (ACAP), along with Silas Capital and Emil Capital Partners, valued at USD3m.

Founded by Florida-based entrepreneur Jerry Bello, Pasta Chips and the brand’s new Pasta Bow Ties offer Italian-inspired snacks crafted from durum wheat semolina flour and baked as a better-for-you snacking alternative. The brand integrates farro, a higher protein grain for a more nutrient-dense product and embeds seasonings based on regional Italian favorites. 

Jerry Bello, founder and CEO of Pasta Chips, says: “We wanted to create Pasta Chips as a healthier alternative to the current options in the deli aisle. We’re dedicated to innovating new products to offer our consumers premium ingredient, gourmet taste, and snack food products that have a greater focus on nutrition.”
ACAP is a USD154.5m fund, licensed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) as a Rural Business Investment Company (RBIC).
