Over the past five years, the Food Marketing Institute along with other food system leaders have explored consumers’ increased calls for greater trust-building transparency in today’s food system – from the farm gate to the dinner plate. Throughout our first interactive online learning experience, we will cultivate our understanding and knowledge of what the research – FMI’s, The Center for Food Integrity’s, and others, is telling us and how we can begin to apply key learnings within our organizations.
This is part one of a three-part online learning experience designed to help your food retail company develop a trust-building transparency program for your organization. We encourage you to join in all three parts, including these additional portions:
• February 28 - Nourish Trust-Building Transparency
• March 7 - Harvest Results from Trust-Building Transparency
