We incorporate colourful illustrations of fresh ingredients and motifs related to Italian cuisine to create a cheerful and welcoming atmosphere. Comunicación y Marketing: In our communication strategy, we play with the double meaning of ”PA$TA” to create provocative and eye-catching campaigns. Our slogans and taglines revolve around Italian gastronomic themes and abundance.…
