In order to do so, from 22 to 26 of May, the land of origin of the precious condiment hosted seven of the most important American foodbloggers from overseas. They had the honor and the burden of being lectured about the history and traditions of the “black gold” of Modena. This enabled them to become ambassadors of the authenticity of the product in the United States.

«This activity is crucial to our strategy to approach the US market» explained Federico Desimoni, Director of the Consortium. « We decided to focus on events targeted to people working in the sector, on meetings and conferences addressed to the the most authoritative targets. Bloggers and influencers are able to reach large audiences; by training them, it can become possible to achieve the cultural change that will defeat for good the agro- piracy».
