Snack Food Association one of the Pack Expo 2011 partners

PACK EXPO Las Vegas 2011 (Sept. 26–28, Las Vegas Convention Center) is collaborating with several industry associations to add even more value to the most comprehensive processing and packaging event taking place in North America.

“While brand owners are always in need of innovation that enhances their operations or gives them the edge at the point-of-sale, we recognize that they have limited time and resources to source solutions,” said Charles D. Yuska, president &CEO, PMMI. “By partnering with associations across the supply chain, PACK EXPO Las Vegas will make it easy for attendees in the food, beverage, pharmaceutical and cosmetic/personal care sectors to find the processing and packaging technologies they need in a single location and in just a few days.”

One of the Pack Expo 2011 partners is the Snack Food Association.

The Snack Food Association (SFA) will endorse The Baking and Snack Break, a dedicated lounge for baking and snack processionals. Located in the South Hall’s upper level, The Baking and Snack Break will allow attendees to network with their peers and engage in further dialogue with suppliers, helping them find the solutions they need quickly and efficiently.

The Baking and Snack Break lounge will also include an “Ask the Expert” feature staffed by the Snack Food Association (SFA) where attendees can seek advice from industry experts on baking and snack-related challenges in processing and packaging.

The Baking and Snack Break will host its own networking reception on Monday, Sept. 26. In addition to being endorsed by the SFA, the Baking and Snack Break is being sponsored by Kliklok-Woodman, Yamato Corporation and BluePrint Automation.
