Last year has been full of achievements for Balsamic Vinegar of Modena PGI. Its numbers are a testimony to its significant growth under various aspects and this is further confirmed by the latest Qualivita-Ismea 2017 report. A yearly investigation which analyses the most important social and economic phenomena within the certified food quality division. Among the Italian PDO and PGI groupings, that in 2016 was worth roughly 15 billion euro (with an incidence of 11% on the total agricultural industry), the exports value stands out as its growth reached 8.4 billion euro.

Italy is a country that holds the world record for titles won among the groups within Food & Wine (813 out of a total of 3,005) and Balsamic Vinegar of Modena PGI in fact stands out among them. It is the most exported Italian food with 92% of its production directed towards a market outside of Italy, with half of it going to countries outside of Europe.
