Special Press Luncheon

The lunch also included an introduction from representatives of the three consortia behind these meats: Consorzio Italiano tutela Mortadella Bologna, Consorzio Cacciatore Italiano, and Consorzio Zampone e Cotechino Modena IGP.
Following the press luncheon, interested parties can purchase the renowned deli meats at selected city’super, one of Hong Kong’s leading, premium grocery stores, giving customers the opportunity to explore, taste and purchase these exceptional products while learning more about their heritage.
Supporting Heritage and Quality
The three consortia behind these products – Consorzio Italiano tutela Mortadella Bologna, Consorzio Cacciatore Italiano, and Consorzio Zampone e Cotechino Modena IGP – are non-profit organisations dedicated to safeguarding and upholding these traditional foods.
The consortia ensure that their deli meats meet strict production standards in compliance with the European Union’s PDO (Protected Denomination of Origin) and PGI (Protected Geographical Indication) certifications. These certifications not only protect the integrity of these products, but they ensure consumers of their authenticity, nutritional value, and quality while also supporting the producers who continue to craft them using time-honoured methods.
