Welcome to the 41st Annual Great Lakes Section IFT Suppliers’ Day Expo!

While Michigan is known for its automotive industry, the food and agri-cultural industry ranks in the top 3 for employment in our state. Our diverse food system spans from the fruits and vines of the west side, to potato chips on the east, and from north to south encompasses a wide array of various nutritious, delicious and affordable foods. And don’t forget the beverages from our fantastic craft breweries to wash down those products!

At today’s show, exhibitors are showcasing a wide variety of ingredients, equipment and services. Please use this unique opportunity to meet face-to-face with their experts, learn about the latest trends and ingredi-ents, and walk away with ideas to improve your current products or to provide innovation as you create the next new successful product launch.

The Great Lakes Section of IFT would like to thank all our exhibitors and attendees for coming to Battle Creek today. We hope that you will find this event very fruitful. A very special thanks to all our staff and volun-teers who take time out to coordinate this event! Our section cannot thank you enough for your support in making this event the success that it has become.

Attending the GLSIFT Suppliers Day is one of many ways you can ex-pand your professional network. Our section has many events to con-nect.
