Food opportunities and challenges for the Soccer World Cup 2010
SAAFoST Workshop

Date: Tuesday, 7 July 2009

Sponsored by: Famous Brands and Absa Corporate and Business Bank.

Background info:
With the Confederations Cup kicking off next week and soccer fever sure to double with the arrival of international stars, there could not be a better time to introduce SAAFoST's upcoming workshop. How can the food industry best take advantage of the opportunities available next year? What kind of culinary demands are we catering for? What food safety challenges are we expecting? With a top-notch line-up of speakers, we believe the event will prove to be a highlight on the SAAFoST calendar.

All proceeds to go towards sponsorship of students at the IUFoST 2010 Congress.
