The Monterey Pasta Company produces and markets premium quality gourmet pasta & pasta sauces using natural ingredients. PSTA markets & sells through grocery, club stores and nat'l distributors.
While PSTA has had many problems in the past and has suffered substantial losses, it now seems that the new management team, headed by the new CEO Kenneth Steel, is poised to turn this company around.
Insiders have also been accumulating stock.
