Well, the city of Milan he wanted to invest effort and funds in an initiative that demonstrates how much our country is at the forefront in this particular area. In fact, he opened the covered market of Porta Romana, the largest in Lombardy!
The covered market of Porta Romana: the Italy that you love
Il 9th November the covered market of Porta Romana was inaugurated in bustling Milan. Wines and craft beers will be the flagship of the project, as well as local meats and vegetables. Clearly it will all be strictly organic, for an Italy that does not give up, and which focuses on the quality of its offer. The headquarters, among other things, have recently been refurbished. Born as a simple mechanical workshop, it has found new life thanks to this special initiative. Following the happy experience of via Ripamonti in June, the building (located in via Friuli 10) hosted several producers, and will remain open for four consecutive days a week, from Wednesday to Saturday, from 8 to 14. A clear perspective at the base of the project, namely that of enhancing a healthy, conscious diet, which takes into account the peculiarity of the products and above all their seasonality.
Coldiretti Lombardia is very proud of what has been achieved, and asserts: "Consumers will have the opportunity to shop directly from the farmer with excellences of all kinds completely Made in Italy:: from fruit and vegetables to oil, from cheeses to fish to milk, butter, eggs and even plants and flowers ".

Expanding and enriching the food offer not only allows you to enjoy the specialties of our raw materials, but also the neighboring regions.
Scent of goodness, but also of change
The tradition remains, but is renewed by following in the footsteps of novelty. In fact, Coldiretti promptly communicated that consumers, once inside, will be able to sign the petition for the first time in Milan Eat original! Unmask your food. This consists in the official request of the European Commission to act in a transparent and clear way about the origin of the food. It must be said: one small step for man, one big step for… The quality of the products. A debated topic and sometimes a sore point, here it is dressed in a reinvigorated spirit. In fact, it is essential that we know the origin of the products that occupy our tables, especially in a world as varied and complex as ours.
