Chicken Marketing Summit, July 21 -23 2019
2019-07-21 08:00 - 2019-07-23 17:00 | Antigua
How do channels, choices and challengers influence consumers’ chicken purchasing behavior? Find out at the 2019 edition of Chicken Marketing Summit scheduled for July 21-23 at the Belmond Charleston Place in Charleston, South Carolina. Early Bird registration is now open.
Consumers have more choices for when, where and how they buy chicken than ever before. Advances in mobile technology, computing power and connectivity have made home delivery of prepared meals, groceries and meal kits commonplace. The differences between foodservice and retail distribution channels for food have been blurred as convenience and grocery stores offer more made-to-order meals and restaurants have more carry out and home delivery options. There is more choice and competition for each meal occasion.
Connecting with consumers, particularly digitally, is increasingly important as e-commerce sales increase. Generation Z, the first group of consumers who grew up with smart phones in their hands, is starting to graduate from college and enter the work force. These trends will only accelerate as the buying power for Millennials and Generation Z increase in coming years.
A series of essential educational sessions will focus on this year’s theme, “Channels, choices and challengers.” The 2019 Chicken Marketing Summit will provide insights on these trends and creative solutions for how chicken sales and marketing professionals can effectively and efficiently connect with today’s customers and consumers.
2019 Chicken Marketing Summit agenda and speaker preview:

Keynote presentation – presented by Clint Rivers with Wayne Farms
Marketing to Generation Z moms: Lessons learned from millennials, Generation X – presented by Maria Bailey with BSN Media
Grams scramble: Competing for consumers’ protein needs – presented by Meagan Nelson with Nielsen and Kelley Fechner with Datassential
Transparency in an age of activism: How can you get the upper hand? – presented by Hinda Mitchell, president with Inspire PR Group
The brave new world of proteins: Is poultry passé? – presented by Robyn Metcalfe, Ph.D., with Food + City
Chicken Consumption Survey results – presented by Joyce Neth with WATT Global Media and Chris DuBois with IRI
2 NEW, highly-relevant panel discussions: Supply Chain Partners panel and Channels, Choices and Challengers panel

Presented by WATT Global Media and the National Chicken Council, the 44th annual Chicken Marketing Summit remains a member benefit for NCC processor and allied member companies, as well as members of the National Poultry Food Distributors Association and National Turkey Federation.

As people are becoming more interested in where their food comes from, the trend of raising back yard chickens is growing. Guelph approves the growing of chickens however many growers have questions about welfare, environment, winter management, manure management and health of their birds. The Poultry Industry Council’s course will help address some of these questions, as well as covering the basics of chick care, egg quality, feed and nutrition and disease management.

The International Production & Processing Expo (IPPE) continues to evolve and grow to meet the needs of its attendees and exhibitors. In the past six years since the Expo’s three sponsors – the U.S. Poultry & Egg Association, American Feed Industry Association and North American Meat Institute – came together, the show has grown significantly in size and attendance. As a reflection of this growth, in 2019, IPPE will be expanding the show floor to all three halls (A, B and C) of the Georgia World Congress Center. This will allow IPPE to accommodate increased demand for new and existing exhibitors for additional space as well as allow for more networking opportunities and engaging events on the show floor. Also, an updated brand identity will be implemented that boasts a modern feel with bolder, graphic-style lettering in new colors and fonts as well as updated icons to represent the intersection between the poultry, meat and feed industries.
The trade show focuses on Innovation – bringing together buyers and sellers of the latest technology of products and services to make your business successful, Education – learning from the experts in free- and fee-based world-class programs on topics that cross industry interests, Global Reach – attracting more than 8,000 International visitors from 125 countries, and Networking – meeting new and rekindling old relationships with leaders across the industries.
The 2019 IPPE will bring together more than 1,200 exhibitors and 30,000 visitors in Atlanta, Ga. With the Super Bowl coming to Atlanta in 2019, the IPPE show dates have been moved to Feb. 12 – 14, 2019. Mark your calendar to note this change from January to February for the 2019 IPPE trade show only.
