ABOUT US
The Lodi Export Consortium, a non-profit organization, was established in 1977 by a group of entrepreneurs from Lodi with the aim of supporting the expansion into foreign markets of small and medium-sized industrial, artisanal, and commercial enterprises.
An extraordinary intuition is at the basis of an ambitious project that has grown over the years thanks to the participation of companies based in Lombardy, Piedmont, Veneto, Emilia-Romagna, and Abruzzo: a collection of excellent realities whose distinctive products are appreciated in markets all over the world.
Why choose collaborating with Lodi Export? Because we enhance the competitiveness of companies operating in international markets, or those looking to enter them, by providing both organizational and financial support for promotional activities, as well as a highly specialized range of technical and training-information services. It is important to highlight that our services are available not only to members, but also to non-members and to companies that enter into agreements benefiting the Consortium’s members.
Companies associated with Lodi Export generate over one billion euros in consolidated revenue (about half of which comes from foreign markets) and employ more than 3,000 people.
In addition to these, there are supporting Entities (institutions, trade associations, banking institutions, large companies), which on one hand support the Consortium’s activity at a financial, logistical, and advisory level, and on the other receive visibility and opportunities for engagement with the numerous member companies.
