BRAMI Italian Protein Pasta Partners with the New York Yankees for the 2026 Season
The fastest-growing pasta brand in the nation teams up with one of sports' most iconic franchises for a season-long campaign rooted in Italian food culture, community, and competition
NEW YORK, June 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- BRAMI, the Italian food brand bringing protein pasta to American kitchens, today announced a season-long partnership with the New York Yankees. The collaboration marks a major milestone for the brand following its recent Series B funding and continued national expansion.
Founded by first-generation Italian American Aaron Gatti, who grew up in New York, BRAMI carries a personal connection to this partnership, linking Italian food culture with one of the city's most iconic institutions. As the fastest-growing national pasta brand, BRAMI continues to evolve from an emerging pantry brand into a mainstream household name with its protein-rich, Italy-made lupini bean pasta.
Throughout the 2026 season, BRAMI will be integrated across the Yankees ecosystem through in-stadium signage, digital and social campaigns, fan promotions, hospitality experiences, retail campaigns, and a special Yankee Stadium group-ticket event that includes a limited-edition Yankees-branded Italian Flag Cap. The partnership brings together two brands rooted in tradition and culture, positioning BRAMI at the center of a powerful moment in food, sport, and the New York community.
"As an Italian-American New Yorker, born into a Yankees family, this partnership is incredibly personal to me," said Aaron Gatti, BRAMI Founder. "Some of my favorite memories revolve around nights of watching the Yankees with friends and family. Food, community, and tradition were always at the center of those moments, and they continue to inspire everything we do at BRAMI. We created BRAMI to honor authentic Italian pasta while delivering the protein and nutrition consumers are looking for today. Partnering with one of New York's most iconic institutions and sharing BRAMI with Yankees fans throughout the season is a true full-circle moment."
As part of the partnership, BRAMI will activate with the Yankees season in the following ways:
- LED signage placements visible during games and broadcasts
- Special group-ticket event on August 11 vs. Seattle. Each group ticket purchased through this link will come with a New York Yankees branded Italian Flag Hat with a BRAMI tag.
- Consumer sweepstakes and ticket giveaways
- Retail and in-store marketing campaigns
- Sampling and fan engagement activations
- Hospitality experiences and premium game-day events
"We are excited to welcome BRAMI as a new partner," said Michael J. Tusiani, Yankees Senior Vice President of Partnerships. "We are confident that their various Yankees-related activations will increase BRAMI's brand awareness among our fans."
The Yankees partnership represents a major step forward in BRAMI's evolution from an emerging pantry brand to a mainstream household name.
