The Food Institute joins Technomic to present an important
webinar that will identify key trends impacting consumer spending
in today's changing economy. From restaurants to retailers, 2007
was a year of decelerating growth. The first six months of 2008
has delivered new lows in consumer confidence and record highs in
consumer prices.
Moving forward, this new business environment will demand a mix
of conservatism (in investment and expansion), bold thinking and
innovation to stand apart from the competition. Webinar features
include:
- Midyear economic update: An insightful discussion of
the most relevant economic indicators and the resulting impact
on the food and beverage industry.
- Retail and foodservice sector scan: A review of the emerging
shifts in consumer behavior that can lead to major changes in
the way stores and restaurants position their businesses.
- Pricing and tactics: Key results from Technomic's June
2008 consumer pricing impact survey, offering both tactical and
strategic insights for industry decision makers.
- Trends to watch: Covering both current and emerging trends,
webinar participants can better position their companies for growth
in the second half of the year and beyond.
The Consumer Food Spending and the Changing Economy webinar provides
insights about key success factors for decision making during this
challenging time. There will be a question and answer session following
the presentation.
Who Should Attend: Professionals in all sectors
of the food and beverage industry, their partner organizations
and consultants to the industry.
