September 29—October 2, 2016 The Sagamore at Lake George
61st Annual Convention &
Business Conference
The Northeast’s Frozen & Refrigerated
Associations
September 29—October 2, 2016
The Sagamore at Lake George, Bolton Landing, NY
The Northeast’s Frozen & Refrigerated Annual
Convention & Business Conference
Brings the Frozen and Refrigerated decision-makers from the Northeast together
in a relaxed setting to discuss the latest trends, challenges, and issues facing the
industry today. This collaborative effort bringing together members of EFRA,
FRANE and WNYFRA and includes a dynamic business session, along with
opportunities to meet one-on-one with retailers, provides the best opportunity
to network and converse with those who can positively impact your business.
Positioned as the only collaborative event of its kind for the Northeast, and a
pre-curser to the National event, local leaders capitalize on this opportunity to
meet face-to-face and set the groundwork for collaboration, deeper business
relationships and professional development.
With limited participation, guests have the opportunity to
network one-on-one throughout the weekend with key
executives and those most closely impacting their business.
The weekend kicks off on Thursday with s welcome dinner, the option for
Friday morning golf, followed by pre-scheduled retailer meetings and dinner,
Saturday’s jam packed Business Session, Tours & Activities, and our Celebratory
Member Of The Year Dinner Celebration. The conference ends on Sunday and
guests depart at their leisure after enjoying a hearty Adirondack breakfast!
Pre-scheduled Retailer meetings
on Friday afternoon, lay the
groundwork for future
collaborative discussions as well
as the upcoming NFRA
convention in late October.
