Global Food Alaska 2007
Global Food Alaska 2007 Impact?
The Bottom Line

Jonathan, Josh, Larry, Leslie, Phil and Jake

Beyond the fun, great food, site visits, educational programs and collaboration between supply chain partners, we needed a solid metric.    What was the true financial impact to our companies?  The initial survey of event participants estimated nearly $2,000,000 of new business as a result of GFA 2007.   We were pleased to learn that these results reflected transactions for the smallest through largest companies participating.  A follow up survey will occur in November for a final tally, but we're thrilled! Thank you again to our sponsors for helping make this happen.

For those unable to attend and continue to ask about the event?  It is challenging to provide a 5 minute recap, but we have provided highlights of the event at this link

We thought you'd appreciate the photo above of Ruby Hollembaek's (Interior Game Ranch) daughter, Leslie, with the famed Crab Captains and crew comparing notes on operating a Bison Ranch in Delta, Alaska with harvesting Crab nearly 1000 miles away in the Bering Sea.  The connections were unbelievable!
