Neapolitans

The Neapolitan Pizza Makers Association was founded in July 1998 with the aim of re-evaluating and preserving one of the professions that is symbolic of Neapolitan folklore and culture: the Pizza Chef.

Our mission

Protect

the art of pizza making as a heritage of humanity

To pass on

knowledge to the new generations

Enhance

the professional figure of the pizza chef

Spread

Neapolitan pizza and the art of pizza making at an international level

Target

The association's goal is to protect the work of the pizza maker, but above all to pass on the art to young people who have the pleasure and desire to explore this artisanal craft. For us, pizza isn't simply a food to be enjoyed, but a symbol of a people's identity.
