Snack Manufacturing Supply Chain Workshop

PLACEHOLDER — Ingredients, packaging film, seasoning blends and co-packers: a workshop on securing a snack supply chain you mostly rent.

About this event

Snack manufacturing leans heavily on co-packers and specialist ingredient suppliers, which means most of the risk sits outside the factory wall. This workshop is about managing exactly that.

Groups work through contract language, minimum security expectations for co-packers, and how to keep producing when a single seasoning supplier goes offline.

Everyone leaves with a co-packer security addendum they can adapt for their own contracts.
