Overview

- The closure follows the November shutdown of the Treat Boulevard outpost and leaves only a related Napa deli still operating.
- The Walnut Creek ravioli factory will remain open and continue supplying local retailers.
- The company called the move a heartfelt choice after prolonged economic pressures, and a manager also pointed to lease issues.
- Founded in Oakland in 1926, the family-run brand closed its original Temescal location in 2016 as its retail footprint has contracted.
