An expanding sector

 

The International Pizza and Italian Food Exhibition is expanding since its creation :

+10% of exhibitors in 2011 

+15% of visitors since  2010...

 

Italian catering is a money-earning "theme". With revenue up, this specific sector is performing better than the average for the catering sector as a whole.

 

This success goes hand-in-hand with the craze for Italian products, and stretches over all new catering venues: cafés, brasseries, fast-food outlets, pizza vans, etc

 

This mixture of sorts is giving rise to new concepts such as "Italian cafés", "restaurants/delicatessens", "new-look trattorias", where the pizza is combined with an offer of pasta, antipasti, panini, bruschettas, ice cream, wines and coffees.

 

The Pizza & Pasta Expo disposes of the support of an international advertising campaign aimed at buyers in the out-of-house catering sector, specialised shops and supermarket/hypermarket chains in France and Europe.

 

 

A few key figures regarding the booming pizza market :

 

 

  • Pizza sales represent nearly €3 billion
  • 20,000 sales outlets in France
  • The French consumer eats 10 kg of pizza annually
