RUTIGLIANO, ITALY - 21 FEBRUARY 2018: An employee checks the penne candela (a type of pasta) after being dried, at the Divella pasta factory in Rutigliano, Italy, on February 21st 2018.

Opened in 1895, the plant just outside the regional capital of Bari is run by the grandson of the founder, Francesco Divella. Divella has exports grow substantially and is a prime example of the success of the region in recent years. Yet this has led to very few jobs, given that the plant is highly automated, with more on the way: they just bought a self-driving forklift to handle warehouse work and have already deployed robotic arms that place product into boxes. Divella is an example of how Italy's recent success is not lifting enough people to make a difference in sentiment.
