Consorzio Piacenza Alimentare is an export consortium based in Piacenza in the middle of the Po Valley. Founded about 20 years ago by the Piacenza Chamber of Commerce, the consortium now has 32 member-companies. Revenues on exports abroad currently amount to about $55.2 million or 20% of total sales. The consortium concentrates on wines of the zone and a wide range of premium food products, for which the Val Padana is famous. Colla, Spa, at Cadeo in Piacenza province, is one of the members of the consortium. Established by Giuseppe Colla on his dairy farm in 1921, the company has steadily expanded. It is now managed by the third generation of Collas and consists of five dairy plants and four warehouses. It produces Grana Padano and Parmigiano Reggiano in various formats. Three wine estates and houses contribute an extensive series of wines to the consortium's portfolio. They are Il Poggiarello, a wine estate, and two wineries, Cantina Val Tidone and Cantina di Vicobarone.
