Why Work With Us?
Our Story:
Non-commercial foodservice manufacturers use brokers to represent their products to the school nutrition industry.
These sales brokers often carry 25+ lines, and their focus on specific lines may be limited.
It can also be difficult to find brokers that will support your line - especially if it is a new, unproven product line.
Manufacturers must find a way to get their message across to decision-makers and make headway in a crowded market. They must find a strategy to help keep their products top of mind in the industry.
In addition, most foodservice professionals are interested in seeing new innovative products and ideas and may be missing opportunities if their sales reps don’t mention specific concepts in presentations.
