Foodservice Conference Buyer Sourcing Meetings

Meet 16 Buyers

This unique opportunity, like speed dating, allows foodservice produce suppliers to connect face-to-face with foodservice operators and distributors, opening the door for more in-depth conversations in the future. For exhibitors, this is a great way to drive traffic to your booth.

Each participating supplier company will have 8-minute meetings with each participating buyer company. Space is limited and spots will be filled with an ultimate goal of including a diverse mix of produce suppliers and buyers.

This program is currently sold out for 2025. Click below to indicate your interest in participating in the Foodservice Buyer Sourcing Meetings at the form below. You will be placed on a first come first serve waitlist if a spot opens up.
