The Products of Vesuvio: The Heart of the Italian Agri-foodstuffs

Agri-foodstuffs represent for our country a strategic section both for the economy and for the national production development.
Not by chance, one of the most important challanges of Vesuvio National Park regards traditional local products. The mission of Vesuvio Park Authority is to combine the promotion of local identities and the safeguard of a territory that has been victim of abuses and illegality for a long time.
As a matter of fact, the Park Authority is paying particular attention to local production activities and is committed to the achievement of the various labels of Protected Geographical Indication and Protected Designation of Origin. This is the best way to safeguard and enhance the products that have been always characterizing the territory of Vesuvio for their quality.
