LaManna at Essendon Fields is transforming into a festive wonderland


This festive season, LaManna is decking its halls with an incredible range of goodies to meet all your Christmas needs and ensure your next holiday feast is one to remember. 
 
With an extensive selection of Panettone, a variety of hampers and gift options and the best quality meats and produce to elevate your festive meal, LaManna in Essendon Fields is the one-stop-shop this December. 
 
LaManna CEO Patrick LaManna said that Christmas time is extra special for the supermarket as customers from all parts of Victoria make their way to Essendon Fields for all their Christmas goodies.  
 
“This year is our biggest Christmas offering yet with 900 Christmas specific products showcased on a 70 metre display,” Patrick said. 
 
“I have always said, ‘If I wouldn’t serve it to my family, it’s not going on the shelf,’ so at LaManna we pride ourselves on stocking top quality goods including seafood, meat, patisseries, cakes and gifting options that the whole family will love. 
 
“It puts a smile on my face seeing the store so full with every register open and our staff working hard to give our customers a seamless shopping experience.”
 
The Italian supermarket is also offering one of the largest selections of Panettone, including brands such as Galup, Bauli, Pep, Fiaconaro, Loison, Fraccaro and the very designer and delicious, Dolce and Gabbana. The traditional Italian Christmas dessert is just one of the ways LaManna will be bringing their culture to the store this festive season. 
 
“Panettones are a special part of traditional Italian Christmas, signifying togetherness, sharing joy and are culturally tied to gift giving. My family enjoy a piece after dinner with a warm cup of coffee,” Patrick said. 
 
“These Panettones are moist and soft with the perfect texture and heaps of flavour. We can’t wait for our customers to get their hands on them and bring a hint of Italy to every Christmas table this year.”   
 
Three types of hampers are also available in store and will include an array of products from prominent brands such as Pistachio Papi, Koko Black, Bippi Chilli and Mount Zero. With both sweet and savoury varieties, customers can find the perfect gift for friends, family, colleagues or even as a treat to themselves. 
 
LaManna is for those that appreciate quality and an experience to match. For more information, head to lamannas.com.au
