MIDDLE EAST: BOTTEGA (PROSECCO), 'WAR WILL HAVE REPERCUSSIONS ON EXPORTS'

The war in the Middle East could have significant repercussions on the main brands in the sector such as Prosecco but not only. The impact will certainly be negative and will cause critical issues in our exports to Israel. Airlines with routes above those areas will also suffer repercussions." This is the opinion of Sandro Bottega, owner of the company of the same name in Bibano (Treviso), one of the main exporters of Italian wine and spirits in the world. «It will also be necessary to understand how much this conflict will extend territorially and over time, which will be crucial for assessing its impact. It is true, as the President of UPA Lorenzo Sassoli de Bianchi says, that since 2001 companies have become accustomed to managing uncertainty, but it is also true that these tragic events still affect the international economy by modifying - as happened in the case of Russia - also nature», adds Bottega. Precisely in these days Bottega SpA entered the top 5 of the MEDIOBANCA Study Center, precisely in fourth place, relative to the major Italian producers for economic-financial and efficiency indicators (2021), «a sign that our company creates value for the sector, for the territory, for the country and clearly for shareholders and collaborators", commented Sandro Bottega
