Prodeca - DARPA, in collaboration with the Government of Catalonia's Delegation in the United States, is organising the event CATALAN FOOD SHOW MIAMI, to be held on 17 September at Paradise Plaza, Miami Design District.
DESCRIPTION OF THE ACTIVITY
A sector trade fair organised by Prodeca with the participation of importers of Catalan products (food and wine) and trade visitors: distributors, restaurateurs, sommeliers, chefs, specialist shops, press and influencers.
The show will include: Company displays, a wine masterclass, pa amb tomàquet workshops and cooking demonstrations, with the aim of supporting Catalan companies through their importers, increasing sales and strengthening the positioning of CATALAN FOOD as a benchmark for creative, innovative, high-quality food.
It forms part of a strategy to support importers in increasing product turnover in that market and, at the same time, to act as a platform for contact with selected importers for companies that do not yet have a commercial presence there.
