Amsterdam – With a concert, a wine tasting and a video, Verona – through its Chamber of Commerce – was presented to operators and journalists in Amsterdam during an evening organized at the Italian Chamber of Commerce for the Netherlands, the Chamber of Commerce of Verona and the Valerio Catullo Airport. The perfect evening to coincide with the presentation of the new Amsterdam-Verona flight connection by the Dutch airline Transavia. Francesco Azzarello, Italian Ambassador to the Netherlands, opened the evening by presenting the local beauties, well known to Dutch tourists, among the first to discover the charm of Lake Garda and to fall in love with the territory. The new connection will make life easier for operators and entrepreneurs: the Netherlands is Verona’s sixth market for imports (€395 million in 2014) and the ninth largest export market for local products (€232 million in 2014 ). The main exports are clothing, footwear, wine and machinery. From the Netherlands, Verona imports mainly meat, raw materials and products for the agricultural sector. (9Colonne)
