The Pizza, Pasta and Italian Food Association

Welcome to papa.org.uk home of the Pizza, Pasta and Italian Food Association (PAPA).

PAPA is more than just another trade organisation, not only providing significant benefits for our members but also working to raise standards throughout the industry and improving the commercial environment.

Through our Codes of Practice and guidelines we seek to ensure that consumers can look to PAPA member suppliers, stores and restaurants and be assured of their quality.

Committed to Helping You Build a Better Business

There has always been something rather special about the Italian family approach to life and this is something that we at PAPA try to adopt with membership.

Although our membership is diverse and international, the Association aims to be there to help its members when they need it, whether that is to provide specialist advice to help you to solve a particular problem or simply to trace a piece of vital equipment you need.   So you always know you have someone to turn to when you need help and advice.

But our support goes much further than simply being there.  At PAPA we are concerned to positively build the pizza pasta and Italian food market so that our members – whether they are manufacturers, suppliers or restaurateurs – gain from a strong trading environment. 

That’s why you need to be part of The Pizza, Pasta & Italian Food Association – the only trade body which represents the whole of your industry.
