FPI Educates on Packaging Evolution

At the Foodservice Packaging Institute's September, 2011 semi-annual meeting held at the historic Brown Palace in Denver, an entire afternoon session, Foodservice Packaging Initiatives: A View from the Outside. was dedicated to education on sustainable packaging facts, trends and available resources.  Here is the strong speaker line-up:

The session ended with a lively Q&A lead by Lynn Dyer, FPI President.  

It is important for the elder of foodservice packaging trade associations to educate their members on sustainable trends, soon to be required standards for venue and other contracts.  At this juncture, those embracing sustainable packaging are pioneers and leaders yet the tables are ready to turn from leadership to requirement.

The day ended with a fantastic reception and dinner at the Brown Palace Club.   Invigorating conversations flowed about  product development opportunities.

As an active Sustainable Food Court Initiative Team Member and Ei Advisory Council Member, Lynn is an industry leader educating herself and FPI members on the evolving packaging landscape.  It is an honor to work with Lynn on the SFCI projects and include her valuable insights as the pilots launch.
