About the Authentic Italian Table Event Series
IACCW, together with other Italian Chambers of Commerce abroad, has joined forces with the Italian Ministry of Economic Development and Assocamerestero to educate the general public and encourage buyers and consumers alike to be the conscious of authentic Made in Italy products vs. Italian sounding buyers trends.
By Italian sounding phenomenon one refers to purchase of products that have been made to look and sound like their Italian equivalents despite the fact that these imitations have no connection to Italy.
The “True Italian Taste” project is aimed at enhancing the Italian agri-food industry in order to increase its knowledge among consumers and consumption in target foreign markets, where products of Italy are most popular but are actually not of Italian origin.
The activities, (in person- or online) which will be taking place over the next two years, are addressed to importers, distributors, hotel chain purchasing managers and specialty stores, chefs, food bloggers, journalists, nutritionists, opinion leaders and world-famous food and wellness enthusiasts. Activities will include business trips to Italy for food and wine buyers, workshops, seminars and promotional events abroad as well as other initiatives.
The “True Italian Taste” project is promoted and funded by the Italian Ministry of Economic Development and implemented by Assocamerestero in collaboration with the Italian Chambers of Commerce abroad. True Italian Taste is part of the "The Extraordinary Italian Taste" program which aim is to enhance and safeguard the authentic Italian food product.
