At Seafood Expo North America in Boston (March 13-15, 2022), Food Export–Northeast is investing in bringing market insight directly to Northeast suppliers who may be exhibiting or attending. Food Export–Northeast’s In-Market Representatives will be attending to provide a no-cost opportunity for suppliers to learn, catch-up, and delve deeper into learning about specific international market opportunities for their seafood product(s).
Throughout the show, Food Export–Northeast will host no-cost meetings for suppliers and In-Market Representatives from around the world. During these one-on-ones, suppliers will have the opportunity to ask In-Market Representatives questions about the markets they work in everyday and gain first-hand knowledge about market trends and the pace of pandemic recovery. Meeting slots are 30-minutes in length and can take place at an exhibitor’s stand or in a meeting space off the show floor organized by Food Export–Northeast. Both suppliers exhibiting at the show as well as those visiting may register for meetings. Register today as slots are scheduled on a first come, first serve basis.
While Food Export–Northeast’s In-Market Representatives are in Boston, they’ll take part in a unique educational session and cooking demonstration with leading sustainability seafood expert, author, and chef, Barton Seaver. The session will focus on American Lobster and Jonah crab and showcase the superior value of these products as versatile and delicious ingredients for overseas menus. Additionally, In-Market Representatives will learn about processing techniques, food safety, and sustainability–all topics important to share with foreign seafood buyers.
Register today to participate in the In-Market Representative meet and greets. You can learn more about how Food Export–Northeast supports Northeast US seafood suppliers in exploring export opportunities by visiting our website and/or getting in touch for more information.
