ONLYMOLFETTA?

HOLYWEEKinAPULIA2008
but ONLY Molfetta? It was a question I was constantly hearing in the corridors of the BIT - Milan Tourism Exchange and also in the Molfetta infopoint, when tourists, after witnessing the Easter rites in my town, would ask about other locations.
 
I realized then that we had a huge tourist and cultural potential on our hands, and I immediately transformed the tourist-cultural promotion project from Holy Week in Molfetta to Holy Week in Apulia.
 
I immediately gathered the first adhesions of fifteen Apulian municipalities from Gargano to Salento: in the following years the municipalities became twenty-two. Regional institutional involvement was also needed, however, and not knowing where the office of the Regional Department of Tourism was, the then Regional Councillor Guglielmo Minervini put me in touch with the Regional Councillor for Tourism Massimo Ostilio, who with great enthusiasm approved our project, which also included the involvement of private companies.
 
A meticulous work of research, selection and analysis of Apulian processional events, where the emotional involvement on the part of the traveler becomes a strong point of the event and a tourist attractor. The creation of a specification signed by the municipal bodies, which guarantees the quality of the reception services offered to the traveler, has allowed the creation of a network among twenty-two municipalities in Puglia: from the Gargano to the Ionian Sea.
 
The design of itineraries divided by province to meet the needs and interests of travelers: THE GARGANO AND DAUNIA • IMPERIAL APULIA • BARI AND THE COAST • THE SALENTO • THE MAGNA GREECE
 
The creation of a bilingual pocket guide, a dedicated bilingual web portal, social activities, participation in trade fairs, with the aim of deseasonalizing and differentiating the tourism offer. This project was part of our plans to promote tourism and enhance local traditions, demonstrating the effectiveness of our territorial marketing.
 
Through collaboration with public and private entities, we created synergies for territorial development and the promotion of local traditions, emphasizing our ability to promote Puglia's cultural tourism by involving local governments and private companies.

Why don't we try to SHARE our know-how to create new business opportunities with other colleagues?"
 
Why not try to network and create synergy among entrepreneurs? For the first time in our city, nine companies from Molfetta's industrial area shared an exhibition space within one of the most emblazoned trade fairs of the time, Bari's Fiera del Levante
 
- Cattolica Popolare - Globeco - Gaudio - Giesse Impianti - Grossano Arredamenti - Inottica - Molfetta Outlet - Remec - Sitec were the nine companies that immediately joined the promotion and marketing project, self-financing themselves and without any public contribution.
 
Business activities that were different from each other, but shared an idea, a vision, a territorial marketing project.
 
At the end of the trade show event, my office was filled with floral tributes as a sign of gratitude from colleagues for the work they had done and the excellent business results they had achieved, with a commitment to try again from scratch the following year.
 
This success highlighted our expertise in networking between public and private entities, promoting local resources and enhancing the territory of Molfetta.
 
The territorial marketing project "NOVEMERCANTIinFIERA" has further strengthened our ability to make our region's city of Molfetta more attractive for new business opportunities and economic development.

GOODMANIFESTO ...

HOLYWEEKinMOLFETTA2007
"I want a beautiful MANIFESTO!" Was asked for it in my office by the then prior of the Confraternity of Death, Dr. Franco Stanzione, accompanied by photographer Antonio D'Agostino.
 
After a few days, I showed up at the appointment with more than the graphic layout of a poster, with two typewritten folders describing a promotional project on the rites of "Holy Week in Molfetta" at a total cost of 30,000.00 euros.
 
They were shocked to say the least: the prior immediately said that the Brotherhood could only contribute a small fee.
 
Thanks to the involvement of the private companies Remec, Cattolica Popolare, Oleificio Goccia di Sole, Top Service, Garden Hotel, Editrice L'Immagine, Rifindecor, ConfSud, and without any public contribution, the project took shape and substance and we set off in the realization of:
Exhibit space at the International Tourism Exchange in Milan
Stand for two months at theBari-Palese Airport
Infopoint at the headquarters of the Confraternity of Death
A bilingual catalog and web portal
Guided tours during the Easter period
 
This project was part of our plans to promote tourism and enhance local traditions, demonstrating the effectiveness of our territorial marketing.
 
Through collaboration with public and private entities, we created synergies for territorial development and promotion of local traditions. The pocket guide, the bilingual web portal, social activities, participation in trade fairs, and guided tours have underscored our ability to promote cultural tourism in the city of Molfetta, involving local governments and private companies.
 
This project highlighted our ability to create networks between public and private entities, promoting local resources and enhancing the territory of Molfetta. Our territorial marketing strategy has contributed to making Molfetta an attractive tourist destination, offering tourists a comprehensive experience that includes discovering the local traditions and cultural beauty of the region.
