Italy: Food Processing Ingredients Sector

The Italian food-processing industry continues to be highly fragmented, and depends almost entirely on raw material imports, most of which come from other EU countries. Italian consumers continue to prefer fresh products rather than canned or frozen. In Italy, the 10 leading food-processing companies account for around 40% of sector sales, and growth areas include chilled ready meals, frozen pizza, soups, and healthy foods.
