BEMA Convention to provide insight on a variety of industry segments
BEMA’s 2018 Convention, to be held June 19-23, 2018 at the Hilton Los Cabos, will feature five customer insight sessions. From the baked goods market in Latin America to wholesale baking in China to today’s doughnuts, the program addresses a broad range of topics. “We worked to bring bakers from different backgrounds to this year’s Convention,” says Jim Warren (Reading Bakery Systems), co-chair of BEMA’s Convention and Programs Committee. “The sessions will provide information on market segments we should all pay attention to. Members will be able to learn directly from bakers and network with them as well.” Warren also stated that the presenters represent both established bakeries and up-and-coming companies that are experiencing growth.
BEMA will present part two of a series on the China baked goods market begun at Summit in February. Building on the understanding of that market and best practices for member companies discussed there, BEMA will host leading bakers in China including Mark Bendix, Bimbo QSR; JJ Wu, Mankattan; Hao Liang, Hanbao One Food Co., and Huang Guang and Miao Li Ping from Weiduomei Foods.
