WHOAREYOU?

EASTERinAPULIA2010

 

 

But WHO ARE YOU?
She asked me while looking me in the eye, a regional official in the corridors of the BIT International Tourism Exchange in MilanIt was a question intended to investigate how a simple "private individual," without any kind of political labeling, could set up a public institutional "network," involving private individuals as well, for the creation of a tourism and cultural brand on the events of Holy Week in Apulia.
 
"You have discovered hot water! It was right in front of us and no one had paid attention to it."
 
It was a phrase very frankly dictated to me by a city councilor. In short, the interest and attention towards the tourist and cultural promotion project "Holy Week in Apulia: Places of the Passion" was enormous. Then the Airports of Puglia, RAI 3 Puglia, andENIT Agency of the Ministry of Tourism joined in.
 
The activities carried out were: stand for two months at the Bari-Palese Airport, realization and free distribution in the most important tourism fairs of a multilingual pocket guide and related web portal, social activities, public meetings in the municipalities adhering to the tourist-cultural promotion project. This project was part of our plans to promote tourism and enhance local traditions, highlighting our expertise in territorial marketing.
 
 
Through collaboration with public and private entities, we created synergies for territorial development and promotion of local traditions. The pocket guide, dedicated web portal and social activities have underscored our ability to promote Puglia's cultural tourism, involving local governments and private companies.

 

This project highlighted our ability to create networks between public and private entities, promoting local resources and enhancing the Apulian territory. Our territorial marketing strategy has helped make Puglia an attractive tourist destination, offering tourists a comprehensive experience that includes discovering the region's local traditions and cultural beauty.

NOISE

BITMILANO2023...e fai RUMORE!
Borrowing the title of the famous song by the artist Deodato, for the presentation of the Pugliautentica.it tourist and cultural promotion project at BIT - the Milan Tourism Exchange, I decide that we have to 'make noise', get noticed, otherwise there is no point in going to the Fair.
 
And so I hired the Bassa Musica Città di Molfetta, led by maestro Aldo Gargano, who for the whole day wandered around the stands at the Fair to the sound of traditional and folkloristic music, creating merriment and mayhem among all the visitors and tour operators present at the Fair, who were amazed and surprised by so much musical merriment.
 
This initiative is part of our tourism and cultural promotion projects for local administrations and the enhancement of Puglia's local traditions.
 
Contact us today to find out how we can work together to enhance the traditions of your region, and view our other projects to explore the initiatives we have successfully implemented.
Minister Matteo Salvini himself, visiting the Puglia region's stand, was enchanted.
 
This event demonstrated our ability to create synergies for territorial development and collaborate with public bodies on cultural and territorial marketing projects.

But where has the bass drum gone? I had had it sent to the fair many days before and, to keep up the stress, a few hours before the arrival of the Bassa Banda at the Fair, the bass drum was still wandering around among the couriers in the province of Como.

 

In short, if it had not arrived that morning, the musical performance would have gone up in smoke, jeopardising an important moment of tourist promotion of Apulia auetntica and the opportunity to make Molfetta 's local resources and cultural tradition known to the tourism operators present.

 

And I would have gone up in smoke too....

REDZONE

PUGLIAUTENTICA.IT2021 This is a RED zone, Mr Armenio!
mayors and municipal councillors answered me on the phone. In the first months of 2020, the country was at a standstill due to the pandemic and it was forbidden to travel by any means.
We were all living in a moment of 'suspension' and talking about tourism, travel and holidays might have seemed inappropriate to many.
 
Instead, it was precisely the lever on which I aimed to stimulate the administrators to already think about the post-pandemic period, when the world would start up again. It was time to be prepared for the restart with targeted tourism and cultural promotion projects.

The turning point was precisely this: to go further, broaden our horizons and look to the future with optimism, enhancing local resources and promoting local traditions.
 

I decided to group our contents, on which we had been working for the past few years (from Easter events to patronal festivals, from the Christmas period to the Paths of the Soul and food and wine excellences), within a single brand, with an easily identifiable claim: PUGLIAUTENTICA.IT, the Apulia you have never seen.
 

Fourteen municipalities from the Gargano to the Ionian Sea and fifteen Apulian agri-food companies have joined the 'network', creating synergies for territorial development and promoting territorial marketing for local administrations and private entities.
 
With our e-commerce activity, we ship agri-food products throughoutEurope, contributing to the tourist promotion of Apulia.
 
Contact us today to find out how we can help you enhance the resources of your territory and promote your local traditions, and view our other projects to explore the successful initiatives we have implemented for eco-sustainable tourism.
 
 
 
This project demonstrates our experience in networking between public and private entities, in territorial cultural innovation and in the realisation of promotional events for eco-sustainable tourism.

COVER

OPERAASSOCIATION2003

 

 

COVER those poster!!
This was the peremptory order of the then Mayor of Molfetta.
 
I was immediately summoned by the resentful and quite angry ASM president who wanted clarifications and justifications on this summer billposting campaign that we had undertaken 'without his knowledge'.

 
A civic education campaign done at our expense, to make citizens more aware of the need to respect the environment and the territory.

 
The messages used were ironic and deliberately provocative to try to stir everyone's consciences: from "don't be a piece of shit in the street", to "smooth gassed or vastaso" to "taste of salt or taste of pork" (the latter campaign aimed at those who still abandon waste on beaches), with a final competition on social media to stimulate readers to come up with a new slogan that we would then use for the final billboard campaign.

 
During the years of the Association's life, which was non-profit, we were also involved in organising musical events, art exhibitions, and cultural meetings to promote the cultural and tourist excellence of the Apulian territory, with an intense territorial marketing activity. This project was part of our efforts to promote tourism and enhance local resources, demonstrating the effectiveness of our commitment to cultural promotion and territorial cultural innovation.

 
Through collaboration with public and private entities, we created synergies for territorial development and the promotion of local traditions. Our initiatives underlined our ability to create networks between public and private entities, promoting Puglia's cultural tourism and enhancing the territory of Molfetta.

 
This success highlighted our expertise in territorial marketing, helping to make Apulia an attractive destination for cultural and tourist events, involving local administrations and private companies.

TELLUS

ZAPPIMPRESA2005

 

 

Let us TRY TO TELL our story

 

When we set up in 1993, our factory was our fourth shed. At the beginning of the 2000s, the craft and industrial area of Molfetta was rapidly taking on the shape and appearance of a new city, but it was a world unknown to everyone, a world made up of new entrepreneurial realities that were springing up in the most diverse sectors: from crafts to trade, from mechanics to services.

 

And here was the idea of creating a communication tool that would serve precisely to develop knowledge and awareness on the part of all the protagonists in the development of an area: institutions, trade associations, professionals, entrepreneurs, with the aim of telling the world about themselves and their specificities and entrepreneurial qualities.

 

To create a continuous dialogue with the city so that the industrial zone would not be a foreign body to the Molfetta community. Thus was born ZAPP IMPRESA, a bi-monthly magazine.

 

The magazine was also in English and was sent free of charge to all Italian and European chambers of commerce and sold at newsstands. This territorial cultural promotion and innovation project highlighted our expertise in involving public and private entities to create synergies for territorial development through a territorial marketing strategy.

 

Through collaboration with local administrations and private companies, we created networks between public and private entities, promoting local resources and enhancing the territory of Molfetta. Our territorial marketing strategy has contributed to making Molfetta an attractive business destination, offering a platform to tell the specificities and entrepreneurial qualities of the area.
