SUMMARY:Contract Manufacturing: Balancing Efficiency\, Quality and Profitability in Food and Beverage
DESCRIPTION:Register for the webinar here \nFrom Aptean: \nContract manufacturing has continued to grow as more and more food and beverage businesses trust third parties to help them produce quality products at scale. With a projected annual growth rate of 9.5% through 2030\, the outsourcing space has and will continue to be a major player in the food and beverage industry that sees strict traceability requirements\, small profit margins\, and shifting consumer demands. \nSucceeding as a contract manufacturer in today’s regulatory environment requires changing out products\, lines\, and packaging quickly\, maintaining strict quality standards for multiple customers and providing world class traceability capabilities. And if you are the customer outsourcing to a contract manufacturer or contract packager\, there is a fair concern regarding giving control of your product creation to another business. \nJoin us on this Feb. 21 webinar as contract manufacturing expert Carl Melville tells his “Six traits of highly effective brand-co-man relationships.” Carl is founder and managing partner of TMG\, an industrial marketing agency that works exclusively with contract manufacturers. \nThen Aptean’s food and beverage manufacturing expert\, Jack Payne\, will dive into: \n\nKey trends impacting contract manufacturers and food companies who outsource at least a portion of their production\nTechnology solutions to maximize efficiency and ensure quality\nThe unique needs of contract manufacturers\, contract packagers\, and outsource manufacturers\nHow to be the co-manufacturer businesses want to work with\n\nRegister here.
