PREVIEW
It’s
pizza time!
There is one place where every year producers and suppliers from across the UK, Europe and beyond get together to showcase innovation in one of the most complex culinary traditions for the most simple of products – pizza. THREE IN ONE The European Pizza and Pasta Show will take place on 22 and 23 June 2022 at Olympia London. This year, the event has merged with its two sister events – Bellavita Expo and Iberica Expo - to create a unique and enhanced offer to all visiting trade buyers. The European Pizza and Pasta Show, member of PAPA (the UK’s Pizza, Pasta and Italian Food Association), is part of the CIBUS and VinItaly family, and is supported by the World Pizza Association, Associazione Pizza Verace Napolitana, Associazione Pizza Romana and the UK Italian Chamber of Commerce. Looking in from the side lines, this event might well 26
appear like every other industry exhibition to some – companies, brands, competitions, celebrity chefs, retail and food services buyers
– the usual and the ordinary. Scratch the surface, however, and open wide the front doors of Olympia in June, and you will find the fairy tale world of culinary creativity and imagination, all brought to you by local, artisanal producers from a range of countries. From the fragrant flours blended by the master flour makers of Molino Caputo and Molino Vigevano to the tomatoes grown on the hills of Mount Vesuvius, olives from Tuscany, toppings from Emilia
Romagna, Campagna, Puglia (presented by Demetra) – all will be united from the north and the south of Italy, and all regions in between. A WORLD OF PIZZA AND PASTA INDUSTRY INNOVATION Over 200 exhibitors, 50 chefs, competitors, two stages, industry product presentations, new ingredients, new recipes and new equipment are all set to be part of the show.
Pizza Pasta & Italian Food magazine will attend the show at Stand A39, and we look forward to catching up with readers, subscribers, and advertisers past and present. There will be an opportunity to discuss advertising options within the magazine and the digital platforms (web banner placement, video placement, podcast placement and e-zines). Plus, the features scheduled for the second half of 2022 will be available to view and discuss with us. New subscription will be possible (there are two choices - hard copy via the post, or digitally). The latest issue for June will be available to pick up at the stand, or via a QR code which can be scanned on the day. We look forward to a busy and productive two days at the show and meeting with all interested visitors. Contact: Andrew Emery (marketing) 01291 636334 www.pizzapastamagazine.co.uk
