Do you ever feel like you’re stuck in a rut? Are you
looking for ways to gain momentum and taking your business to the next level? If
so, then you don’t want to miss RCI’s Annual Convention
& Industry Expo in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on June 12-16, 2023!
Join fellow confectioners, candy retailers and suppliers looking to gain momentum in their businesses through impactful education and collaboration. Get inspired to take the next step and gain momentum for your business through two days of education led by experts in their fields and designed to meet the unique needs of the retail confectioner.
Learn game-changing retail and merchandising techniques
from retail strategists and professional store planners, KIZER & BENDER. In
two unique education sessions, this dynamic duo will teach attendees how to
engage and connect with customers and offer a better understanding of what you
need to do—and how to do it—to take your sales to insane, new levels, as
well as create store layouts that sell, sell, sell!
As a new addition to this year’s educational
programming, attendees will have the opportunity to select topics that best fit
their unique needs and interests during Roundtables: Conversations for Candy Businesses.
Participants can join up to three different small groups to discuss specific
topics relevant to their confectionery business. Each group will have a
moderator to guide the conversation and address questions.
Topics to include:
- Business Operations
- Candy Formulations/Troubleshooting
- Human Resources/Hiring
- Marketing/Merchandising
- And more!
Attendees will also gain clarity on FDA
packaging and nutrition labeling regulations, as well as how to capture
consumer demand by identifying key flavor trends and executing successful new
product launches. Click here
