IBIE TUESDAY
INTERNATIONAL BAKERS FIND SOLUTIONS,
NETWORK AT IBIE
IBIE PRESENTS AN excellent opportunity
for the international baking
community to not only find
solutions to current supply chain
and labor challenges but also to
network and learn about trends
around the globe.
" Interacting with
other bakers, and
exhibitors interacting
with other
will
exhibitors,
help
us
see
where our
markets are going, "
said Jorge
Zarate, global senior
vice president
of operations and engineering
at Grupo Bimbo
S.A.B de C.V., and vice chairman
of IBIE. " All of the countries are in
different stages of maturity. They
are not in the same place, so this
interaction is important. "
The international community
usually makes up about 30% of
Expo attendees, and while attendance
in some nations like China
were expected to shrink, countries
with more robust
attendance numbers
such as Mexico,
Canada, Colombia,
Brazil and
Spain expanded
for 2022.
Bakers internat
iona l ly
are interested in
learning more about
sustainability and producing
healthy products to
meet consumer demand.
" After the pandemic people
have more time to think about
themselves and their families'
nutrition, " Mr. Zarate said. " They
are demanding that companies
provide more health-and-wellness
products. "
As companies around the
globe are facing many of the same
supply chain and workforce issues
as in North America, IBIE presents
a good opportunity for entire
teams, from the production room
to the executive level, to coordinate
and network.
" This show used to be a technical
show just for engineers and
bakers but not anymore, " Mr. Zarate
said. " More parts of the value
chain are interested in what is going
on here. It's a perfect place for
CEOs or upper management to see
what is going on with the industry
all over the place. " *
