Barilla has opened a new headquarters for its operations in the Americas.

"This is a new and exciting chapter for us – one that speaks to the passion we feel for continuous innovation. It's how we are growing the business," Barilla chairman Guido Barilla said.
The building includes a pilot plant; test and demonstration kitchens; and a "customer collaboration centre" for joint business planning with customers.
In August, Barilla relocated approximately 150 employees from Bannockburn in Illinois to the new office.
Mr Barilla added: "Now, when our employees come to work they are welcomed to a space that is built for collaboration and learning, both of which are the engine that pushes us forward into new territories and to even better serve our customers."
