The
Italian DOP cheeses have increased in number over the last two years and have especially consolidated volumes and revenues in foreign markets. A situation that manages to establish itself despite the setbacks from the Russian market, especially for hard cheeses.
Made in Italy doesn't miss a beat and continues to have a strong appeal among international consumers.
A symbol of goodness, genuineness, and attention to design.
Cheeses with protected designation of origin show positive export values at 1.4 billion, with a +5.5% compared to last year. The foreign market is very sensitive to our product, even in parts of the world previously difficult, such as Asian countries. Exporting in the dairy sector is a challenge that seems to be currently won, but there is still ample margin for maneuver.
The delicate work of controlling the origin of the product and containing counterfeiting is definitely the new frontier that will need to involve the government and protection bodies. Today, the main markets are North America, the USA, and Canada; in Europe, the leading country is Germany, followed by France and England. Excellent performances come from Japan, Korea, and China.
