Lucanica 2.0 project: agro-food companies abroad with Total and Octagona

New stage in the internationalization process for the Lucanian agri-food companies participating in the Lucanica 2.0 project.

In mid-September, two more training days were held for the companies participating in the event internationalization program promoted by TotalEnergies and the Joint Venture Tempa Rossa, with the close collaboration of Octagona.

After the June event, dedicated to international marketing and technological innovation, the eleven Lucanian companies met in Corleto Perticara to study and define the next project steps for the launch on the international market, in view of a trade mission to Belgium which will be held in November. The aim is to promote local products and food and wine on international markets, thus contributing to the development of the Lucanian agri-food sector throughout the world, with the organization of a promotional event in which restaurateurs, chefs, sommeliers, importers, distributors will participate , food and wine journalists and food bloggers. The emerging chef will also be part of the Lucanica 2.0 delegation Francis Lorusso, present in Corleto at the first of the two training days and recently awarded in Witaly's 'Emergentechef 2022' competition at Alma.

In addition to the representatives of the eleven companies that have joined Lucanica 2.0, the person in charge of relations with the territory, Ambrose The broom and Maria Teresa Lapadula (Sustainable development) for TotalEnergies, while for Octagona the temporary export manager, Ester Temperato and the project manager, Brando Bruschi.

“We want to accompany – he said Ambrose The broom, by TotalEnergies EP Italia – the companies of this area, so rich in flavors and typical products, outside the Italian borders, creating new commercial opportunities for them, providing them with the necessary tools to compete on international markets. Our hope is that these eleven companies can lead the way for other companies in the area, ensuring that the Lucanian economic fabric is increasingly devoted to exports".
