2017 will mark the first time that Bellavita Expo will bring the Italian Pavilion to Mexico City. Working to build on the success of their previous shows, the excellence of Italian food, wine and beverages will be presented to the Mexican market. To do this Bellavita have paired up with the long-running Mexican hospitality show, Abastur which provides the vital links for producers and the Latin American Ho.Re.Ca sector (Hotel, Restaurant and Catering) between the 29th August and the 1st of September.

Now in its 32nd year, the event which is hosted at the Centro Citibanamex in Mexico City looks to be bigger than ever, filled with entrepreneurial possibilities. Bellavita’s pavilion will be brought to life with a host of top chefs (to be confirmed) offering their insights on Italian cuisine and the top trends, masterclasses and panels.

Producers exhibiting the excellence of Italy will have the opportunity to expand their international distribution rights to the Americas, with buyers from over 17,000 buyers attending from the North, South and Latin American markets over four days. The vast metropolis boasts over 35,000 restaurants of which some 278 alone specialise in Italian cuisine. This makes it the perfect time to invest and to discover authentic Italian flavour with the best in specialist produce.
