  • Global Food Alaska - 2009 offers local, national and international buyers a comprehensive supply chain solution.

    We've invited the best of the best - those companies that offer food, beverage and bio products harvested or produced in Alaska and their supply chain partners. Over 130+ exhibits will feature these companies with their decision makers, on-site to do deals directly with buyers.

    The show will also feature associated products and services such as food distribution, transport, labeling, packaging, quality control, IT, brokerage, equipment, processing, communications, export, finance, nutrition, R&D, education, marketing and more.
    NEW. The show floor will be open noon to 5 so participants can participate in the conference program and area tours.

    Collaborate with the entire supply chain partners to create the products and solutions you need.

  • The Conference - Unfiltered, "How Buyers Buy"
  • Unfiltered: How Do Buyers Buy? What Do They Really Want To Buy? Attend the two-day conference, on-site at GFA - 2009 featuring speakers who directly purchase food, beverages and bio products.

NEW: The conference and networking program will occur exclusively in the morning (pre-show) to maximize information and education sharing.

  • Dinner Honoring Alaska's Own - Harvesters and Producers
  • How could we not do it? One of the most memorable parts of the entire event!

    An awards dinner will be part of the overall industry event, scheduled for Wednesday, June 10th. This event will is the capstone of Global Food Alaska where leaders in food harvesting, production and marketing will be recognized and honored.

    If you missed 2007, take a look back here. We were honored with leaders of business, policy makers and even a few TV stars.
    Participants contributed their Alaskan harvested food and beverage for one of the best meals EVER! We plan to do it all over again in 2009!

  • What Makes GFA 2009 Unique?
  • Decision makers.

    Global Food Alaska 2009 is different in many ways, but most notably it is designed for decision makers and actively solicits executives, owners/operators of companies and senior decision makers at each link in the supply chain.

    Additionally, those decision makers are asked to dedicate the entire two days to this event to have meaningful meetings that impact positive change for increasingly competitive business.

    Does this mean that it is exclusive to large business? Absolutely not. It is designed for operating companies that buy, sell or support the food, beverage or bio products industry of all sizes - local, national and nternational.

    We make every effort to attract exactly the right people and if you're receiving this bulletin, then you are definitely part of that solution.

  • Should You Be Sponsoring?
  • We're holding preferred exhibit spaces for event sponsors.

    Those signing up now also will gain the maximum visibility in all Global Food Alaska 2009 marketing materials (that's 12 full months).

    Additionally, sponsors will have the option of one designee to participate in our quarterly organizational conference calls making sure your business objectives will be met. To learn more about sponsorship levels please follow the link below or call 907.563.0154. Sponsorship Information
