FOOD INDUSTRY EXPO 2008

Tuesday, March 18, 2008
    Rochester Riverside Convention Center,
Rochester, NY
Here's your annual chance to get updated on the latest advances in the food industry, visit with fellow food professionals from the region, and pick up samples, trial formulations and great information, all in one place!
Whether you're on staff at a large food company, or just thinking about getting into the business, this show is a 'must see' for you.

You're invited to be in the audience for the late morning Technical Seminar presentations on current "hot" topics, shared by the most knowledgeable speakers in the business. This program is followed at 3PM by the afternoon of Exhibitor Displays, in the Lilac Ballroom.

Plan some time after the show to relax and mingle with co-workers and suppliers at the "Wind-down" Cocktail Reception across the street at the Main Street Grill! Enjoy a light snack, step up to the cash bar and maybe even walk away with a great door prize! Tickets can be purchased for only $20 at the Expo registration table or ordered in advance with your registration.

Representatives of every major ...and most of the smaller...food manufacturing companies in the Western NY area were at the 2007 show...don't miss this chance to stay ahead of the competition in 2008! Click on the links for more information and to register on-line!
