“Piedmont is the right choice when dealing with the agrifood industry,” says Dario Peirone, President of Piemonte Agency. “Piedmont is home to a unique food system and is continuously investing in R&D and talents in this field”.
Piedmont’s agribusiness sector is worth 5.3 billion euros (4.5% of regional value-added, source: Ires Piedmont, 2021). The most significant food products are beef, wine, dairy, cereal, and rice. Specialties also include the production of fresh and dried fruits, legumes, and white truffles, a prized food harvested between Langhe and Monferrato.
