Fancy Food Show, New York

The Peach of Leonforte PGI (Protected Geographical Indication) has crossed the ocean to land in the Big Apple! The Consortium for the Protection of the Peach of Leonforte PGI was among the key players at the Summer Fancy Food Show 2026 in New York—an extraordinary international stage celebrating the very best of global agri-food heritage.

A Special Visit: Minister Lollobrigida at Our Booth

AWe had the distinct honor of welcoming the Italian Minister of Agriculture, Food Sovereignty, and Forestry, Francesco Lollobrigida, to our exhibition space. This highly significant meeting confirms the institutions’ attention and support toward protecting, promoting, and internationalizing our precious, bag-grown fruit.

Synergies of Taste: Candied Peaches with Agrimontana

New York was also the perfect showcase to present a prestigious partnership: our collaboration with Agrimontana. This synergy has given rise to the candied Peach of Leonforte PGI—a perfect marriage that combines the extraordinary raw materials of our land with the excellence of master candying, winning over the palates of the most refined international buyers and visitors.

The success of this adventure is the result of a great team effort. We would like to extend our warmest thanks to Masaf (Ministry of Agriculture, Food Sovereignty, and Forestry), for their constant support in promoting Italian excellence worldwide, The Sicilian Region – Department of Agriculture, for always standing alongside producers and supporting the development of our territory and all the visitors, buyers, and guests who crowded our booth, showing us extraordinary enthusiasm and appreciation.

The Peach of Leonforte PGI continues its journey around the world, proud of its roots and ready for sweet new challenges! Browse the gallery below to relive the highlights of our New York experience.
