PROFILE OF ITALIAN COMPANIES
120 Italian companies will attend the meeting. 60% of these companies are medium and large growers in Central-South Italy and Sicily, and producers specialized in territorial branded products. 25% of the companies are represented by growers in Northern Italy. The remaining 15% are represented by wholesalers specialized in export of mixed loads. All companies involved are interested in increasing their export shares and discovering new customers and markets. They cover all the typical Italian productions of Central South, Sicily and the Northern regions.
