Recognized under European protective status since 2014, the Cipolla bianca di Margherita IGP is a specialized onion cultivar deeply tied to a narrow geographic strip in Puglia. Unlike other regional onions that grow across widespread provincial territories, this denomination restricts its entire agricultural footprint to just three coastal municipalities: Manfredonia, Margherita di Savoia, and Zapponeta. This highly localized focus defines its identity, overseen by the Consorzio per la valorizzazione e la tutela della Cipolla bianca di Margherita IGP. Currently, official records list zero verified producers, highlighting the unique administrative status of this protected coastal crop.
