Placed in the North East of Italy, Veneto is the first Italian region for GI food and wine economic impact (3,5 billion euros) – following 2018 Ismea-Qualivita report – and it counts three of its provinces in the top five wine producing provinces ranking. Verona (ranked first with 918 million euros), Treviso (ranked second with 845 million euros), and Vicenza (ranked fourth with 462 million euros).

Veneto boasts 92 PDO and PGI certified products, between food and wines, and some of them are known all over the world like Prosecco PDO white sparking wine – recently added to the Unesco World Heritage list – the leading product of Veneto’s total wine revenue (1,3 billion euros in 2017).
