The Rungis & Milan markets are world-famous for some of the best French and Italian produce available.
Rungis Market, based just outside Paris, is a mecca for gourmets and one of the largest fresh produce markets in the world.
It supplies many of the top-tier restaurants in Paris and has acquired a reputation as a gastronomic hotspot owing to the incomparable diversity of the products sold.
Milan’s Ortomercato (Fruit Wholesale Market) is one of the biggest in Italy.
