World Bread Day!
Every October 16th, we celebrate World Bread Day, an opportunity to pay tribute to one of the oldest and most fundamental foods in human history. Bread has been a symbol of sustenance, tradition and culture, present on tables around the world in an infinite variety of forms and flavors.
Bread: Much More Than a Food
Bread is not only an essential element in the daily diet, but it is also part of rituals and festivities in different cultures. From the crusty French baguette to the rye bread of Eastern Europe or the pita bread of the Middle East, each region has its unique version. Its versatility and its ability to adapt to local ingredients make bread a universal and valuable food.

Bakeries that invest in equipment such as Vemag dough portioners or modular solutions from Mfitaly can quickly adapt to consumer preferences, offering artisanal and special products.
