Porta, the frozen pizza brand known for handmade Roman-style products and authentic Italian ingredients, is now available at Target retail stores throughout the United States. The launch expands its retail footprint in North America to approximately 4,500 doors.
Since entering the USA market in 2024, Porta has built a loyal following among shoppers looking for high-quality ready meals, reflecting growing consumer demand for quality frozen foods made with simple, recognizable ingredients and authentic culinary traditions. The listing of Porta pizza products further strengthens Target’s premium food assortment, bringing greater differentiation to the frozen aisle.
“Growing up, dinner was never just another meal—it was how our family connected. When we started, our goal was simple: bring the same care, craftsmanship and ingredients we use in our restaurants into people’s homes without asking them to compromise,” said Cosimo Mammoliti, restaurateur and founder of Porta.
Roman-style Porta pizza features 100% Italian flour from Le Marche, produced by a fourth-generation, family-run mill and made with 24-hour slow-fermented dough to create a light, airy crust. Finished with tomatoes from Campania, extra virgin olive oil from Puglia, and quality toppings, every pizza is assembled by hand and flash frozen to preserve flavor and texture.
Four Porta varieties, each crafted with simple, recognizable ingredients and no dough conditioners, preservatives or artificial additives, are now available at Target stores for a suggested retail price of $11.99:
• Pepperoni – naturally cured sausage, mozzarella and tomato sauce come together on light and crispy Roman-style crust.
• Margherita – creamy Fior di Latte cheese, tomato sauce, and fragrant basil atop Roman-style crust, inspired by the simplicity of Italy’s most iconic flavors.
• Mushroom & Fontina – hand-sliced mushrooms, creamy Fontina cheese, and rich truffle béchamel made with real Italian truffles join to deliver a pizza inspired by the tastes of Northern Italy.
• Sweet & Spicy Soppressata – Authentic Italian salami, creamy mozzarella, tomato sauce and a drizzle of housemade peperoncini combine for tasty balance of sweet heat and bold flavor.
“Porta is helping transform one of grocery’s most established categories by raising expectations for what frozen pizza can be and proving that convenience does not have to come at the expense of quality,” said Abby Haines, president. “The brand has remained true to authentic Italian craftsmanship and a strong commitment to quality ingredients while making chef-made pizza accessible at home. As demand for premium frozen food continues to grow, we’re excited to continue elevating the consumer experience and help shape the future of the category.”
