For the last 50 years, Sagep Editori has dealt with local and national interests, and has been the Ligurian publisher when it comes to tourism, art, food and wine. Constantly moving with time, Sagep pursues the highest quality in all the phases of producing a paper book, from design to editing, from proofreading to printing. In its ART sector, it has developed a flair for creating catalogues and monographs – for both public and private institutions – available not only through specialist bookshops, but also at many national and international museum shops. For the TOURISM sector there are numerous publications dedicated to Liguria and the discovery of Italy as a whole. The series I Tesori d’Italia e l’Unesco ("The Treasures of Italy and UNESCO") provides guides to enhance visits to the best known and most appreciated Italian sites with world heritage status. In FOOD & WINE Sagep tells the story of Italian traditions: Buono a sapersi – Piaceri da Gustare (“Good to Know – Pleasures to Relish”) is a series dedicated to Italy's culinary delights, while I libri dell’MTC (“MTC's books”), equally successful on internet and on paper, concentrates on specific kinds of recipes. Many of Sagep's publications are bilingual, or have been translated into different languages. Sagep's volumes can be found all over Italy thanks to regional book distributors. In addition, all publications are for sale on the main online sales platforms.
