Harry Balzer, senior vice president at The NPD Group, a leading global information company, will discuss eating behaviors and habits in the United States and how that may affect your business at the National Chicken Council’s October conference in Washington, D.C. He has been following Americans’ eating patterns for 29 years as The NPD Group’s chief food industry analyst. He is also author of The NPD Group’s yearly “Eating Patterns in America” report.
More than 90 percent of the nation’s top food and beverage manufacturers and restaurant operators look to “Eating Patterns in America” to understand not just what consumers say they are doing when it comes to food consumption, but what they really do. This information helps businesses identify new product opportunities, discover what is worth watching, so that critical business decisions can be made with confidence.
To her Balzer’s interesting and engaging presentation, plan to participate in the National Chicken Council’s fall conference scheduled October 28-29 at the Ritz-Carlton in Washington, D.C.
