Retailers to meet at World Food Business Summit
Top retailers from around the world will meet from today, Wednesday 18 June 2008, at the 52nd World Food Business Summit to discuss rising food prices and food security.
The summit, with the theme Growth and Sustainability - Building Profit with Responsibility - is hosted by CIES, the Food Business Forum in Munich, Germany until June 20.
Delegates will be discussing issues including food security; food safety; rocketing commodity prices, fuel prices and other input costs; threats to energy supplies; and environmentally sustainable development.
Other topics on the agenda are the impact of biofuels on food production; changing eating patterns; global warming and its effect on food production; and changing consumer habits and demands.
CEOs, chairmen and senior executives representing more than 430 of the world's largest retailers, suppliers and manufacturers will attend the summit.
"Food-related challenges are also not uniform the world over - but, in our globalised world, what happens in one country affects people on the other side of the world," said CIES CEO Alan McClay.
