Portugal Foods brings European culinary premium to New York market

Representing over 200 companies, PortugalFoods is leveraging this Manhattan event to bridge the gap between European producers and the U.S. market. The program targets industry professionals—including distributors and foodservice leaders—who are seeking high-quality, differentiated products ranging from traditional olive oils and canned seafood to artisanal chocolates and the iconic pastel de nata. This initiative marks a strategic push to capitalize on the growing American demand for products defined by clear provenance and sustainable production standards.

Beyond the tasting menu, the event functions as a networking platform designed to shorten supply chains and foster direct commercial partnerships. By positioning Portuguese goods as a blend of culinary heritage and modern innovation, the association aims to deepen its footprint in North America. The showcase is co-financed by the COMPETE 2030 and Portugal 2030 programs, underscoring a long-term commitment to accelerating the international growth of Portugal's agri-food cluster.
