Revolution on labels and labelling of unpackaged products
There are just a few months left to adjust information on the packaging to the new coherent EU rules. Meeting the
requirements of the Regulation of the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union on the provision of
food information to consumers is necessary not only because it comes into effect as of 13th December 2014, but also
because adequate preparation for the labelling changes provides new opportunities, and because the changes can
improve the quality of communication between manufacturer and customer. Valuable knowledge in this field will be
provided by the experts of the Polish Federation of Food Industry during the training session which will be held on
September 30. → Hall 7, Room no. 1D

based on the latest research results in the field of shopper marketing. → Hall 7, Room EF

Well-planned arrangement of an eating place
The success of a catering facility depends not only on the dishes served or its location, but also on its arrangement –
both the part available to customers and the one hidden from their sight, in which the process of preparing food takes
place. Valuable guidance in this area will be offered during the meeting with Barbara Koziorowska, PhD, a consultant
of the Foodservice Consultants Society International. The expert will share her knowledge and experience on how to
select, depending on the assumed menu, technological equipment and how to lay out the rooms to make it possible
