A new initiative of the consolidated Castelló Ruta de Sabor

The Castellón Provincial Council is adding new initiatives related to Castelló Ruta de Sabor and with the same objective that once guided the creation of this guide brand: to increase the consumption of local products as a means of development of the municipalities of the province. “In this same line just a few weeks ago we carried out the I Craft Beer Fair Castelló Ruta de Sabor with huge public success. Now we will carry out these paired tastings, and with the approach of Christmas we will continue the actions that allow us to improve the visibility of the products of Castellón. We want the products of our land are present in every home in our province, because that is equivalent to add wealth to our businesses, our people and ultimately to our province, “explained Roig. It should be recalled that the Provincial Council has consolidated Castelló Ruta de Sabor as one of the agri-food brands linked to a territory with greater magnitude, as it currently brings together 80 producers and more than 100 products from 14 different productive sectors. So much so that in the recent edition of the Gastrónoma fair it was one of the most highly valued brands among the 15,000 prescribers who participated.
