Focus on sustainability
The area that showcases the sustainable future of the foodservice industry.
Located in Hall B1, the Sustainability District is the SIGEP WORLD space dedicated to the key themes shaping the sector: research and sustainability.
Within the district, an exhibition area will be entirely devoted to promoting sustainable practices and processes across the five represented supply chains, creating a direct bridge between producers and conscious consumers.
A true meeting point for emerging enterprises, companies and international professionals, designed to highlight responsible practices and solutions that enhance sustainability across the industry.
The area will also feature a stage hosting a program of talks and panels, where experts, innovators and changemakers will share experiences, best practices and forward-looking visions for a more responsible future.
The on-site projects
Bean to Bar
Bean to Bar is a dedicated space designed to showcase the entire chocolate-making process, from the cocoa bean to the finished product. A place where artisanal mastery turns chocolate into pure excellence.
The area is created in collaboration with Guido Castagna, a renowned chocolatier and roaster.
Within this space, visitors have the opportunity to immerse themselves in the world of artisan chocolate technologies, discovering the innovations and techniques that make Bean to Bar production truly unique.
Origin Countries Area
Within the district, there will be two areas dedicated to the countries of origin, offering a unique opportunity to promote sustainable agriculture, encourage ethical practices along the supply chain, and engage industry professionals.
ICE Area – Italian Trade Agency
With the support of ICE, six African countries (Kenya, Ivory Coast, Tanzania, Uganda, Ethiopia, and Rwanda) producers of raw materials and cooperatives, will be present with the goal of building a cooperation model that enhances the quality of production and ensures fair economic recognition for the countries of origin.
