Today’s Member Monday is steeped in tradition as we introduce you to Ferrarini the newest addition to the IACC network.

Founded in the historic Villa of Rivaltella, in the province of Reggio Emilia, in 1956, Ferrarini began with a simple yet ambitious idea: crafting the finest cooked ham using a secret brine of 21 aromatic herbs and an exceptionally slow steam-cooking process. Nearly 70 years later, its iconic Prosciutto Cotto—the first to be produced without added polyphosphates—remains the brand’s signature product and a symbol of Italian excellence.

Over the years, Ferrarini has grown into one of Europe’s leading agri-food companies, expanding its portfolio to include Prosciutto di Parma PDO, Parmigiano Reggiano PDO, traditional Emilian salami, mortadella, wine, and balsamic vinegar, all produced with the same commitment to quality, authenticity, and the values of the Italian food tradition. Today, Ferrarini exports to more than 30 countries across five continents and, following its recognition as a Historic Brand of National Interest in 2024, continues to invest in innovation while preserving its rich heritage.

Member Monday is working over the long weekend, and today we're pleased to introduce Parallelo to the IACC community! Establishing a presence in the United States remains one of the most complex operational challenges an Italian company can face. Success depends not only on strategy, but on having someone inside the organization who truly understands how things work on the ground—coordinating the right specialists and navigating the local business environment effectively.

This is exactly where Parallelo adds value.

Parallelo provides senior, fractional COO support embedded within the client organization, from pre-entry through full operational build-out. Their role is to translate complexity into ex*****on, helping companies develop the operational foundations needed to operate independently and scale sustainably in the U.S. market.

Home to some of Italy's most dynamic industries and one of Europe's most sophisticated logistics networks, Veneto offers direct access to major trans-European transport corridors and a level of connectivity few European destinations can match.

At the center of Veneto's investment strategy is BLUEGATE, the region's Simplified Logistics Zone (SLZ), based at the Port of Venice. Spanning roughly 18 square miles, BLUEGATE offers qualified investors significant financial incentives, tax benefits and streamlined administrative processes. If your company operates in advanced logistics, manufacturing, chemicals and pharmaceuticals, aerospace, or green economy industries and is looking for a foothold in Europe, we would love to start a conversation.
