There is hardly a better measure of the
vitality and alertness of grain-based foods
than the level of participation in this
week's Purchasing Seminar sponsored by
this magazine and its cohorts in serving
the American food industry. The numbers
alone are telling. Registration this year
once again approaches a record-breaking
600. Nearly every major food company
as well as a range of intermediate size
companies along with all the important
ingredient suppliers are on hand. They
come to hear and to participate in 20
presentations by experts who speak
forthrightly about ingredient prospects.
Of equal weight with the presentations
and lively discussions are the many
opportunities for firsthand exchanges
between peers in purchasing as well
as with suppliers. Reflecting more than
three decades of seminar experience, an
essential part of planning is scheduling
events so as to allow for conversation
with old friends as well as new
acquaintances.
Especially striking in 2009 participation
is the way the numbers are matching the
year-ago record. This is so even though
the past 12 months witnessed economic
distress that has been severe enough to
force cancellation of many conventions
and meetings across most of the industry.
That this has not occurred in grain-based
foods, indeed that just the opposite
is the case this year, is evidence of the
industry's understanding that ingredient
markets are hugely important to future
well-being. MBN
