MILWAUKEE — Palermo Villa, Inc. has partnered with Mizkan America, Inc. to launch Ragu frozen pizzas. The partnership is an extension of Ragu’s current sauce lineup.

The frozen pizzas will be available in four varieties: cheese, combination, pepperoni and supreme. Each pizza features a Ragu-inspired sauce.

“Ragu stands for providing quality products to families looking for easy and delicious ways to ease their busy lives,” said Nick Fallucca, chief innovation officer for Palermo’s. “What better way to do this than by launching a line of Ragu frozen pizzas, with their signature sauce at its core, with one of the country’s leading frozen pizza manufacturers? We’re honored to partner with Ragu — we’re two companies with Italian heritage at the heart of everything we do.”

Megan Frank, senior vice president of marketing at Mizkan America, added, “The Ragu brand has been a household name in the US for decades and is beloved by millions of consumers, but it’s not a brand content to rest on its laurels. Earlier this year we launched an exciting collaboration with You Tube’s popular Hot Ones/First We Feast Team to take the brand into the hot-sauce category. Now, we’re excited to launch our latest collaboration with one of the biggest pizza makers in the US, which will expand our brand into the freezer case. These are exciting times for Ragu and we can’t wait for Ragu and Palermo’s fans nationwide to try these amazing new pizzas.”

The frozen pizzas will be available in early May at select retailers at a suggested retail price of $4.99 to $6.99.
