ITA EDUCATIONAL AND CULINARY TRAINING AT WALMART CONDUCTED BY ALMA’S ACADEMY

In partnership with the ITA, Walmart hosted a 3-day culinary training session from July 9th through July 11th.

The program was geared towards expanding Walmart’s grocery buyers’ knowledge of the Italian food system and authentic products in a joint effort to redefine Italian cuisine in American households.

At Walmart, the classes combined academics, cooking demonstrations and tastings. The 3-day educational and culinary intensive training was designed to offer an overview of the incredible variety of Italy's 20 regions, highlighting the difference between Authentic Italian and Italian "sounding" products, and raising the awareness of the health value and the taste of authentic Italian products.

The training sessions were filled with valuable information on Authentic Italian food and the excitement of the participants who, at the end of the sessions, shared their enthusiastic feedback of being empowered by useful knowledge that can be applied to better serve Walmart’s customers.
