OVERVIEW

Meet with several potential business partners in one place—saving you time and money.

This unique forum provides an ideal way to collaborate with executives from retailer, wholesaler and supplier companies about ways to maximize opportunities in private brands.

Participate in cross-functional teams to develop strategies that drive growth, profitablility and product innovation through pre-scheduled meetings and informal networking settings.

3. Retailers and Suppliers can make private appointments directly with each other using FMI's user-friendly, online scheduling tool.
