The aim of the Sustainable Foods Summit is to explore new horizons for Eco-labels and sustainability in the food industry by discussing key industry issues. How do organic, fairtrade and other eco-labeling schemes further sustainability? With growing proliferation in labels, what are the prospects for a single sustainability standard for food products? What are the practical application of sustainability metrics? What advances are occurring in sustainable ingredients? What developments are happening in formulation, production and marketing of sustainable food and beverages? Such questions are regularly addressed at this international series of summits. Taking place in San Francisco on 30-31 January, the North American edition of the Sustainable Foods Summit will feature health impacts, sustainable ingredients, and organic & eco-labels. For the first time, the executive summit will discuss the future of health & organic foods in a high-level forum. Contact us to receive the detailed summit agenda. Organic & sustainable products now comprise about 5 percent of food sales in North America, however there are questions about the future outlook. Will the ‘mainstreaming’ of the organic food market continue? What disruption is being created by Amazon and other new entrants? What positive health benefits are given by sustainable foods? Such questions will be addressed in this new edition.
