A Legacy Carved in Principle

At McLaurit, our name carries more than ambition — it carries a standard. One rooted in timeless values, earned trust, and the belief that food should always serve the people, not just the margins.

The McLaurit name honors a man of few words and strong values — and the discipline it takes to build something that lasts.

The Legacy Behind the Name

McLaurit was named in honor of Laurito Verginio — a man who lived with purpose, worked with integrity, and believed justice should be built by hand, not requested.
 

He didn’t wait for change. He lived it — through action, discipline, and a deep belief in doing what’s right.
 

In 2023, Laurito passed away from cancer — but by then, the foundation had already been laid.
His life sparked a mission. His passing accelerated it.

It underscored what we already knew: the future of food must be better — not just for taste or performance, but for real human health.
 

That mission became McLaurit.
 

Today, we’re leading a global shift toward cleaner systems, uncompromising formulations, and a new generation of consumer brands — proving that what’s better for people can also build stronger businesses.

Rooted in truth. Built to last.

Roots That Matter

A Name Chosen with Intention

Laurito Verginio — the kind of man who believed in doing things right, quietly. He didn’t chase recognition. He didn’t follow shortcuts. He raised his family with dignity, led by example, and believed trust was earned through actions, not words.

From Tribute to Standard

McLaurit has become more than a name. It’s a responsibility.

As we grow into new categories, new brands, and new markets — the name McLaurit holds us to a higher bar. It’s not a family business in the traditional sense. It’s a principles business. Our teams, our partners, and our investors understand that being part of McLaurit means building with clarity, discipline, and integrity.

We don’t trade in hype. We don’t cut corners. That’s the expectation — and the promise — carried by this name.

Built to Last

McLaurit is the name on every decision we make — and every standard we hold.

We’re proud to carry this name. And we treat it like it matters — because it does. Across every brand we build, every partner we work with, and every buyer we serve, the goal remains the same:
To build what endures. To do it the right way. And to make sure the McLaurit name always means more than just the company behind it.

A name alone means nothing.
What gives it meaning is how you live up to it — every time, without exception.
