The perfect professional to create, manage and grow gastronomic business!

Tourism and, especially, food sector have a strong presence in the Valencian Community. These sectors have grown and created jobs even during the economic crisis, in a way, thanks to the appearance of new food products on the market. Catering companies are a distinguishing feature to achieve a high-quality tourism.
