Monari & Federzoni export sales are booming in China: +80% in 2021

Monari & Federzoni is a historic Modenese company, market co-leader in Italy in the production of Aceto Balsamico di Modena PGI (PGI Balsamic Vinegar of Modena), as well as condiments and beverages. The company saw its exports to China grow by +80% in 2021 compared to 2020. Within the European borders, it is in the Iberian Peninsula that the most significant growth was recorded: +63%.

These are important results for Aceto Balsamico di Modena PGI, a symbol of Italian food & beverage for which Monari & Federzoni boasts a long tradition and a strong bond with the territory. In fact, in 1912, it was the first company in the sector in Italy to obtain a license to produce this precious condiment - as well as fruit vinegar, glazes, and wine vinegar.

Monari & Federzoni was recently confirmed as the market leader in the United States with a growth of +34% in 2020 compared to 2019

THE SUCCESS OF BALSAMIC VINEGAR AND MONARI FEDERZONI

Balsamic vinegar of Modena is one of the most exported Italian food products in the world. Ninety-two percent of production is exported, particularly to the United States, Germany, France, and the UK, with positive trends also in the Far East (Japan and South Korea - source: Consortium for the protection of Aceto Balsamico di Modena PGI). This success concerns also Monari & Federzoni, recently confirmed as the market leader in the United States with a growth of +34% in 2020 compared to 2019 (total references, retail channel).

“Innovation, enhancement of tradition, capillarity of distribution, and continuity in commercial relations are the factors that have allowed us to seize the opportunities arising from the recovery after a difficult 2020, to say the least,” says Matteo Candotto, Sales Director at Monari & Federzoni. “The results confirm the appreciation that this symbol of made in Italy agri-food products continues to receive abroad”.
