Fixing the Broken Foodservice Prospect Model

Fixing the Broken Foodservice Prospect Model
Discover why finding and closing new accounts in foodservice feels so challenging. Data reveals that only 36% of manufacturers successfully identify new targets, often due to growth strategies that rely heavily on brokers and distributors not optimized for cold outreach.

In this session, IFMA The Food Away from Home Association welcomes First Bite to explore why traditional foodservice prospecting models are falling short. You'll also hear directly from brands who are successfully pioneering new growth strategies.
Attendees will learn:
  • Why dependence on brokers and distributors can lead to missed growth opportunities.
  • How emerging brands are effectively expanding their reach with independent operators.
  • How CPG brands are leveraging rebates in new ways to secure foodservice business.
  • How leading manufacturers are overcoming CRM challenges to close more accounts.
  • Practical tips for building a repeatable outbound engine that complements existing sales methods.
If you're struggling to consistently add net-new accounts, this session offers the clear path forward you've been seeking.
