The transition to a circular economy represents an interesting opportunity for Sicily, as it allows the island to exploit its resources in a sustainable way while promoting economic development and environmental protection. Thanks to its wealth of natural and agricultural resources, the island plays a crucial role in the transition towards a circular model. Through the adoption of strategies and business models oriented towards the circular economy, Sicilian companies can optimize the use of resources, reduce waste and promote the creation of long-term value, transforming environmental challenges into opportunities for growth and prosperity. The paper aims to present the current business panorama of eastern Sicily and to provide the results deriving from a survey on the diffusion of the circular economy which involved the agri-food sector. In particular, examples of circular economy on the island are first presented, secondly, the research methodology adopted is described, based on a specific questionnaire addressed to various supply chains in the Sicilian food sector: finally, the results and suggestions aimed at businesses are presented.
