A total of more than 1,000 exhibiting brands are expected to descend on Rimini, Italy, this month, displaying a wealth of creativity at the Sigep Dolce World Expo, reports Neill Barston.
The event, which is in its 44th edition, celebrates the best in gelato, pastry and artisan bakery markets, and takes place between 21-25 January in conjunction with AB Tech Expo (7th edition), the international exhibition of technologies and products for bakery, pastry and confectionery.
Significantly, a number of master artisans, such as Iginio Massari (pictured), who has devised a number of specialities including panatone, as well as a number of others are expected during its five days of events, being staged at the Rimini Expo Centre.
As its organisers note, the 2023 edition is anticipated to deliver a strong focus on the historical supply chains with a layout covering the entire market, where collaboration with artisan and industrial sector associations, national and international master gelato and pastry chef and baker associations, bartenders and coffee specialists will unfold. Exhibition showcases, business, training and foreign market forecasts make SIGEP a veritable community catalyst that starts from ingredients, products and the latest innovations for machinery and systems.
For over 40 years, Sigep has also been synonymous with important international competitions, an extraordinary lever for professional training and discovering new talents in the six “Arenas” set up at the show.
According to the organising tea, it is also considered one of the most complete event at which professionals visiting the show can gain perspectives on technological and product innovation, on international market evolution and where they can meet the professionals in the “Vision Plaza” format, which features both international Out-of-Home analysts and big names in artisan dolce foodservice.
