AFFI and FMI will also join forces during the upcoming AFFI Frozen Food Convention (AFFI-CON) on Monday, March 5, in Las Vegas.

FMI President and CEO Leslie Sarasin is slated to deliver the Industry Spotlight address: “The State of Food Retail and What It Means for Frozen.”

Leslie Sarasin, FMI President and CEO:
 

“Just as frozen foods bring diverse strengths and appeal to customers of retail stores across the nation, we look forward to exploring the infinite synergies that undoubtedly will emerge from having AFFI and FMI share office space, bringing greater efficiency and deeper levels of service to our respective members.”
