The first decade of the 21st century confirmed that we live in a very small world. No borders exist in regards to sharing and exchanging information, in particular within the food and beverage industries.

Infinite opportunities exist for the U.S. dairy industry to better serve the global marketplace…from exporting ice cream to Asia, cheese to Europe and aseptic milk beverages to Australia. Further, many overseas dairy processors are ahead of their U.S. counterparts in new product development; processing and packaging innovations; utilization of functional ingredients and product marketing.

On April 20, 2011, from 2:00 to 3:00pm ET, Dairy Foods will explore the international dairy opportunities available to dairy and beverage processors. Industry speakers will present insights to the trends shaping the following segments:
 

• Milk & Beverages
• Cheese
• Ice Cream, Frozen Desserts & Novelties
• Yogurt & Cultured Products

Webinar attendees will gain insight to how dairy processors and marketers function in other countries. They will be able to apply this knowledge domestically and hopefully increase their customer base, as well as consumption, here and abroad.

Webinar Schedule:
 

	Donna Berry, Dairy Foods’ product development editor sets the tone for this global exchange of ideas by sharing visuals from milk and other dairy product marketing campaigns from around the world.
	Olivia Sant’Angelo, senior analyst with Innova Market Insights, The Netherlands, will provide an overview of the trends influencing dairy and beverage product development.
	Carrie Schroeder, senior marketing manager-nutrition at Fonterra, the world’s largest dairy processor with global headquarters in New Zealand, will provide insight to Fonterra’s approach for meeting the needs of the global marketplace.
