This was a one-day workshop in collaboration with the Food Development Centre and ingredient suppliers from the US and Canada. The event focused on innovative ingredients that can transform food products in various sectors such as bakery, dairy, beverages, meat, and plant-based foods.
Participants had the opportunity to engage in hands-on demonstrations, network with industry experts, and discover the latest ingredient solutions. Leanne presented on new Canadian labelling regulations, Nutrition Facts table labelling and Front-of-Package nutrition symbols, addressing their impact on food products.
Export 101 Workshop - Preparing to Enter the United States Market
