FPT Industrial is continuing its partnership with Slow Food and will be Main Sponsor of the first Sana Slow Wine Fair, being held from the 27th to the 29th of March 2022 at the BolognaFiere exhibition centre in Bologna, Italy.
Sana Slow Wine Fair is the first event where the members of the Slow Wine Coalition, the worldwide network created by Slow Food in July 2021, will be able to meet up and compare notes. The network includes all players in the wine supply chain – growers, sector professionals and those who are just enthusiasts – who embody and acknowledge the principles laid out in the Slow Food manifesto and who are committed to producing, marketing, serving, teaching and publicizing good, clean and fair wine.
The partnership between FPT Industrial and Slow Food was launched in December 2020, in collaboration with CNH Industrial, continuing as official partner of Slow Fish 2021 – The Water Cycles. What’s more, in 2021 the brand was sponsor of the Sustainable Viticulture Prize awarded to the Ceretto family from Alba during the presentation of the 2022 edition of the Slow Food Guide to the best wineries in Italy. Today, this partnership is taking on an even broader and more structured form, confirming the brand’s broad and constant focus on sustainability in agriculture and all other activities where people use engines to work well together, producing results of the highest quality while respecting the environmental balance.
“This event means a lot to us, aiming to bring together and publicize the people behind the world of wine, and contributing to growing dialog and reciprocal knowledge as drivers of progress and improvement for the whole sector”, says Egle Panzella, Head of Sustainability at FPT Industrial. “Matters such as environmental sustainability, protecting the landscape and social and cultural growth of the areas which will be at the centre of the scheduled events always see us at the forefront, proud to promote them alongside Slow Food. This commitment is also constantly reaffirmed by our range of engines which are increasingly oriented towards alternative, low-emission fuels.”
The opening press conference for the first Sana Slow Wine Fair 2022 will be held via videoconferencing on Friday 18 February at 11:30 a.m. , with the participation of Stefano Patuanelli, Italian Minister of Agricultural, Food and Forestry Policies, and Carlo Petrini, President of Slow Food.
