Terrabusi

[3][4][5] In 2007, Kraft Foods Inc. spun off from Altria (ex Philip Morris),[6][7] taking Nabisco (and other brands including Terrabusi) with it.

[1] Italian brothers Ambrosio, Felipe and Julio Terrabusi arrived in Argentina at the end of the 19th century.

Nabisco would then acquire other local food companies (mainly cookies manufacturers) such as Canale (popular brand of biscuits and owner of Cerealitas cracker brand, managed by Grupo Macri that had losses for AR$14,014,113 in 1998)[14] Mayco, Capri,[15] Royal, and Tasti.

[2] The Terrabusi's pasta line was acquired by local Molinos Río de la Plata (owned by the Pérez Companc family) to Mondelez in 2014.

[18] The agreement also included other pasta brands such as Vizzolini, Don Felipe, and Canale, for which Molinos paid other 15 million.

One of the most spread stories said that after the passing of Julio Terrabusi, in 1943 his wife Lidia married Edelmiro Rhodesia, who was later incorporated to the company.

As a matter of fact, an advertisement published in Caras y Caretas in 1936 cited Tita, Rhodesia, Manon, and other brands as products by the firm so they had been created by the Terrabusi brothers, shattering all the stories regarding other inventors and their circumstances.
