From suggested changes in nutrition serving sizes to special claims and additives, the suggested changes would not only have a tremendous impact on the food industry but would also require substantial changes or reformulations to many products. As an industry, executives are looking to gather in order to discuss the ramifications of these proposed revisions, as well as set out realistic timelines for reformulating and relabeling the thousands of products on the market across the country.

Working with outside suppliers in order to accurately track and manage ingredients and label documentation are of great concern, and establishing partnerships with outside vendors will also provide an opportunity to streamline the labeling function through technology and advanced tracking databases. Overall, this conference will provide an educational setting like no other for labeling and regulatory executives, as the industry enters a time of great change.
