Summer holidays often mean adjusting to new rhythms and different settings. Whether it’s a camping trip, a weekend in the countryside, or a week by the sea, there’s one constant that accompanies every departure: food.
On the move, practicality is essential — but that doesn’t mean compromising on quality. With the right selection of long-lasting products, you can enjoy complete and delicious meals away from home — even without a fridge, a full kitchen, or the risk of waste.
What makes a great “travel product”?
The best foods to take on holiday tick a few key boxes:
- Long shelf-life, with no need for constant refrigeration
- Practical formats, easy to carry and reseal
- Ready-to-use convenience, to cut down prep time
- Versatility, adaptable to any situation: a picnic, a quick pasta, or an impromptu cheeseboard
Perfect options include glass-preserved goods, portioned cheeses, ready-made sauces, pantry snacks, and single-serve packs. At Gourm.it, we work with carefully selected artisans to offer products that combine practicality with authentic flavour.
The ideal travel kit from Gourm.it
Portion-packed PDO aged cheeses
Cheeses like Parmigiano Reggiano and Grana Padano are a traveller’s best friend: safe, versatile, and delicious. Mid-aged cheeses (22–24 months) are ideal as energy-rich snacks, while more mature wheels (30+ months) add a gourmet touch.
Mini jars of mustards & preserves
Small-batch mustards and fruit preserves in mini glass jars are the perfect partners for aged cheese. They’re compact, long-lasting, and instantly usable — whether at a picnic, on a campsite, or in a holiday rental. From a retail perspective, pairing cheese with mustards opens up creative formats like travel boxes, cheeseboard kits, or gift packs.
The winning combination
Together, aged cheeses and mustards deliver nutrition, practicality, and unmistakable quality. They also give retailers the chance to offer something unique: an authentic, premium-tasting experience that’s perfect for summer travel.
The pleasure of good food… wherever you are
Stocking a smart travel pantry means enjoying healthier, tastier, and more sustainable meals, while cutting down on unnecessary spending at service stations or tourist spots. More importantly, it allows you to stay connected with your eating habits and celebrate Italian excellence — wherever your holiday takes you.
From a seaside lunch to a campsite cheeseboard, a few carefully chosen products can transform any break into something special. Gourm.it’s range of travel-friendly goods makes it simple to enjoy authenticity and flavour — even far from home.
