SupplySide West is coming up in a few weeks in Vegas, NV – are you ready? More than 16,000 ingredient buyers and suppliers from the dietary supplement, functional food, sports nutrition, personal care, and beverages will be onsite. More than 1,300 exhibitors will line the exhibit floor to showcase more than 10,000 ingredients and solutions.
Professionals focused on research/development, product development, QA/QC, purchasing, supply chain management, and marketing will all be onsite. It’s a perfect opportunity not only for manufactures to present ideas, and for the industry to see new trends, but also for companies to network and present its business to potential new hires.
Being in the industry to 20+ years, attending these shows allow me to not only further my knowledge in the industry but also to continue to network and expand my contact base. Continuing to meet people within the industry allows me to build a contact base of passive candidates who might be currently looking for a job or who might be in the near future. Attending also allows me to keep up with the trends in order to continuously educate myself on what skills and experience in the ingredient industry. This year is no different. I’m excited to stop by SupplySide Centralfor the live, interactive forum, Esca Bona(“good food” in Latin) and numerous workshops.
I’d also welcome the opportunity to meet with your company to see if an Executive Search Firm partnership would be needed to help you recruit top talent. I value myself on having knowledge of the industry and competition, knowledge of other products sold to the same customer base and knows company and candidate reputation.
Schedule time to meet with me during SupplySide West 2018
