A new presentation of an always popular workshop about Brokers, the role they play and the potential for your business to benefit from engaging a broker. Brokers of many types have been instrumental for many years in supporting the stable growth of the Natural Foods Movement in the Pacific NW. Provender Alliance has enjoyed the participation and support of a large number of brokers throughout our history.
Brokers are brand representatives. In order to introduce and build a brand the broker has to have accurate knowledge of and a trusted working relationship with customers of their brands, including wholesalers, distributes, and retailers. This presentation is your chance to come to a better understanding of what a broker can do for your business if you’re a manufacturer seeking a broker or a retailer wanting to maximize your involvement with brands represented by brokers.
