True Grade, a leading logistics provider and food and beverage (F&B) distributor to the cruise, hospitality, grocery, and food service sectors, has announced a new agreement with Italian foods industry leader Bonifiche Ferraresi (BF). The agreement grants True Grade exclusive distribution rights for the Le Stagioni d’Italia brand of authentic Italian foods in the United States.
Bringing Authentic Italian Foods to the U.S. Market
The deal, signed late last year, represents a significant shift in the U.S. market for genuine Italian food products. By partnering with Bonifiche Ferraresi, True Grade will bring products from smaller farms across Italy to American supermarket shelves. Therefore, True Grade will exclusively introduce premium, authentically Italian goods to the American consumer.
“Our new partners at Bonifiche Ferraresi understand what it takes to succeed in the American market. Adding Le Stagioni d’Italia to True Grade’s catalog significantly expands our offerings and connects us to a trusted Italian brand,” said Antonio Malave, CEO of True Grade. “As worldwide issues continue to challenge the F&B supply chain, this strategic partnership provides True Grade with reliable access to high-quality, authentic Italian products.”
Le Stagioni d’Italia Product Line
The incoming product line from Le Stagioni d’Italia will include essential Italian kitchen staples, such as:
- Dry pastas
- Rice
- Extra virgin olive oil
- Tomato sauce
- Frozen, ready-made authentic Italian pizza and risotto
These products are sourced directly from Italian farms, ensuring consumers enjoy a true taste of Italy in their kitchens.
