Featuring
Sustainability: Ideas That Work
Wednesday, February 8, 2019
10 a.m. – 2 p.m.
Heldrich Hotel, New Brunswick, NJ
Sustainability in the food and flavors industries is top of mind for everyone. But where do you start? What steps can you initially take? Where do you find the budget? What is the overall impact on your customer, your business, the planet?
NAFFS is bringing together three food, beverage and flavor industry professionals who are modeling some of the best sustainability practices we have seen. Each will share their experiences and discuss ways to take the first steps toward a more sustainable business. Through both panel discussion and a Q&A panel, NAFFS members and attendees will learn what to focus on first.
The 2019 NAFFS Winter Meeting will be held at the centrally located Heldrich hotel in New Brunswick, New Jersey. This meeting will provide NAFFS members and industry colleagues the opportunity to hear, first hand, where the process begins and where it may lead.
Make plans now to attend this informative industry session. Friday, February 8th, 10am-2pm for a must-see industry panel, moderated by Sustainability Engineer and Consultant Michael Maggio. There will be networking time in the form of a continental breakfast, followed by an exciting program and concluding with delicious luncheon served with organic and/or locally sourced food items and wines.
