My customers (largely Gen Z) want to eat healthier, are concerned about animal welfare, or truly understand the environmental impact of conventional animal products. They are looking for these alt products and if we don’t offer them, they will go somewhere else. PBW allows me to source that super-cool new thing Gen Z is looking for – Rob Morasco, Sodexo -
PBW really allows somebody like me to key in on the plant-based movement and make sure that we’re not missing any future star players.

This kind of show where you have the time to talk face to face with people, and really have good conversations, and learn the why, behind why they started their company, is incredibly valuable to find the mission aligned companies we want to work with. – Erin Harper, Director of Global Merchandising, Grocery Dairy, Whole Foods Market
