Vinitaly. USA to host 300 exhibitors and 400 buyers in New York

The third edition of ‘Vinitaly. USA’ is scheduled for October 26 and 27 in New York City at Pier 36 in Manhattan. Organized by Veronafiere and the Italian Trade Agency, the event has already secured over 400 registered buyers and 300 exhibitors, completely filling the 11,000 square meters of available exhibition space.

Exhibitors will present approximately 2,500 wine labels, including participation from Italian companies and regional collectives from Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Lazio, and Sardegna. The event targets professional operators, including importers, distributors, and Horeca (hotel, restaurant, and cafe) professionals from the United States, Canada, and Mexico.

Federico Bricolo, president of Veronafiere, stated that the goal is to provide Italian companies with concrete opportunities to consolidate their presence and establish new commercial relationships in the United States, which remains the primary non-EU market for Italian wine.
