The ‘Breakfast Made in Italy’ project launched for the first time in Qatar has become an instant hit with the visitors of Hospitality Qatar, Italian Ambassador to Qatar HE Pasquale Salzano said on Tuesday.
Talking to Qatar Tribune on the sidelines of the Hospitality Qatar, the Italian envoy said, “We are showcasing ‘Breakfast Made in Italy’ for the first time in Qatar and I am quite happy with the overwhelming response to this concept of showcasing various Italian products used in preparing breakfast. Our pavilion is full of visitors ever since the Hospitality Qatar has opened. They have tried all different genuine products brought from different parts of Italy.”
“The products on display are made and prepared by small Italian companies. This is for the first time that they have taken part in a foreign exhibition. Doha was chosen by them to sell their products outside Italy,” he said.
The envoy said the Italian suppliers taking part in ‘Breakfast Made in Italy’ project have entered into talks with a number of Qatari firms to market their products in the country.
“So far the Italian firms have received very good response from them,” the envoy said.
Being showcased at the three-day Hospitality Qatar 2019, the first edition of ‘Breakfast Made in Italy’ has brought to Qatar a varied and healthy selection of ‘Made in Italy’ products, equipment and services for preparing the authentic Italian morning breakfast.
Giosafat Rigano, trade commissioner at the Italian Trade Agency Doha Office, said that as many 60 B2B meeting with Qatari firms will be held during the ongoing exhibition to market Italian products in Qatar.
“We are showcasing a refreshing array of authentic Italian ingredients and food preparation techniques that truly resonate with high quality at Hospitality Qatar,” he said.
With more than 30 elite names present at the Italian pavilion, Rigano said, there are very high chances of having joint ventures between Qatari and Italian firms.
Brought to Qatar by Italian National Confederation of the Craft Sector and Small and Medium Enterprises (CNA), the ‘Breakfast Made in Italy’ is aimed at to offering hotel chains, department stores and public places in general a breakfast package.
Head of Promotion Office and International CNA Market Antonio Franceschini told Qatar Tribune that he was overwhelmed with the response by Qatari people to this new concept.
“We are in talks with a number of companies here to market these products. We are also in talks with almost all the hotels operating in Qatar. They have shown great interest in this concept,” Franceschini said.
