Although we will not have a booth this year, we will be in attendance to stay up to date and expand our knowledge on culinary trends and innovations to better inform our research and services for our clients. Our chefs are eager to meet and network with the industry’s finest and hear about the latest trends going on in the food industry from our culinary colleagues.

The melting pot of international tastes and flavors that influence the food of Puerto Rico is the perfect place for this year’s conference, especially with Americans’ growing appreciation and desire for more worldly flavors to be available on menus nationwide. Of course, our chefs are excited to be able to venture out and experience those flavors for themselves, too, from the myriad of amazing restaurants the area has to offer!
