About the organizer of the event

Founded in 2003 by Andrea, ItalyAbroad.com emerged from a passionate desire to bridge the gap between discerning consumers and the true essence of Italian food and wine. Upon arriving in the UK, Andrea, hailing from a family steeped in Italian winemaking traditions, recognized a stark contrast between the commercially available "Italian" products and the authentic, high-quality fare he cherished back home.

Driven by a commitment to quality and authenticity, Italyabroad.com embarked on a mission to unearth hidden gems from small, dedicated Italian wineries and artisanal producers. We meticulously curate our selection, ensuring that every product embodies the rich heritage and exceptional craftsmanship that define Italian excellence.

We partner exclusively with small, family-run businesses who uphold traditional methods and prioritize quality over mass production and our products are crafted using the finest, natural ingredients, free from palm oil, preservatives, and artificial additives. At Italyabroad.com we categorically reject industrially produced items and "Italian-sounding" imitations, focusing solely on genuine Italian delicacies.

Since 2003, Italyabroad.com has been the recipient of several awards for the high quality of products we import.
