Social Food

The Social Food Area – Telling the Human Value of Food Production

The Social Food Area brings to the fair the very best of the agri-food world born from social development and economic regeneration projects: products made in prisons, juvenile institutions, social farming cooperatives, and land reclaimed from organized crime, where work becomes a means of redemption and growth for people and communities.

It is an area that tells — through experiences, products, and stories — the human value of production, that deeper dimension in which enterprise becomes intertwined with people’s lives, restoring dignity and meaning to economic activity.

Social Food is not just an exhibition project, but a true communication and storytelling initiative — a collective narrative that gives visibility to those who, every day, turn the ethics of work into tangible action.

The exhibition area will extend beyond the physical boundaries of the fair, through a continuous communication project made up of social and digital actions that will engage professional visitors before, during, and after the event.

A widespread narrative that highlights the stories, people, and meanings behind these productions — transforming the exhibition presence into a collective and shared experience, where every participant becomes part of a broader story about the human and social value of doing business.

Within the area, there will be companies and cooperatives that operate with transparent supply chains and ethical models, ready to connect with buyers, distributors, and professionals looking to offer high-quality products carrying a story, a meaning, and a tangible impact.

Each exhibitor will contribute to a shared narrative, where the product is not just a commodity, but a testimony of a different way of producing and experiencing work.

The Social Food Area presents itself as a platform for relationships and storytelling, a laboratory of content and connections that goes beyond the traditional exhibition space to become a place of encounter between ethics, enterprise, and communication.

Positioned alongside SANA Food, it offers exhibitors a strategic showcase under particularly favorable conditions — ideal for those who wish to enhance their identity and reach new commercial partners, while contributing to the creation of a new culture of food founded on responsibility, transparency, and human value.
