The staff managed all the details of each event, from the planning to the execution phase, to the management of contacts to ensure the development of trade relations between buyers and Italian companies.

The first year ended with the organization of the incoming, i.e., the invitation by the Consortium of 8 Chinese importers in Italy. Italian companies had the opportunity to meet buyers thanks to the organization of B 2 B meetings that took place on 18 – 19 and 20 February 2013.

From 21 to 23 February 2013 importers got directly in touch with the reality of Italian food through a guided visit of organic farms in Sicily.
