Once again, RdA will be at the Winter Fancy Food Show in San Francisco, 15-17th January (stand 4835), the 30th edition of the most important food and beverage show on the West Coast. Over 1,300 companies representing fine food from 35 different countries will be ready to welcome about 20,000 visitors.
For several years now, RdA has had its own sales office in Miami which covers the entire USA territory, with California being one of the strongest States thanks to local consumers who place a lot of importance on healthy food and wellness in general.
For us, this annual event offers a great occasion for our American sales team, headed by Alberto Carli, to get together with our distributers and clients as well as meeting Cristina Rigoni, Int. Sales Manager from Asiago head office. We also look forward to presenting our new creamy Italian Organic Raw Honey in large 10.6 oz jars (300 gr) and needless to say, offering our guests a taste of Fiordifrutta fruit spreads, Nocciolata and of course Honey.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
