SUMMARY:AGRI-FOOD BUSINESS PLANNING WORKSHOP
DESCRIPTION:The workshop is sponsored by the Ministry of Agriculture and is a federal-provincial-territorial initiative to support the growth and success of the Agri-Food Industry. \n\n \n\nThere are many great moments that happen during these workshops and it's absolutely incredible to be a part of it! To be frank\, this is one of the most collaborative industries and space to be in. Everyone is willing to help one another grow. In one of the last workshops\, a new processor was overwhelmed with all the nuances of the regulatory system\, how to find a commissary to work out and how to prioritize next steps: By the end of the workshop\, she had basically struck strategic alliances with almost everyone in the room to help her with all these areas. She left inspired\, motivated and with specific next steps to build and grow with a new support team. In the most recent workshop in Prince George\, we had a Craft brewer and a Hops grower in that began collaboration almost immediately to support one another's growth!\n\n \n\nPrepare Your Business For Success in 2018\n\n Are you in the pre-planning stage of starting a food business\, or have an established business whose growth you want to kick-start?\n\n Partners for Growth Advisory Services (www.partnersforgrowth.ca) is pleased to present an Agri-Food Business Planning Workshop in Abbotsford BC on February 8 - 9\, 2018. This workshop is an invaluable opportunity for you to invest in yourself and build a solid foundation for success. \n\n\n\nBy participating in this workshop\, you will become well versed in the business planning process\, market access and analysis\, product development\, financial planning and management\, quality assurance\, labeling and packaging\, production economics and logistics.  Not only will you build-out or refresh your business plan\, it's a great opportunity to get insight from and network with other Agri-food companies.\n\n\n\nRita Kim is financial industry specialist with a passion for service and a keen eye for the details that can make or break a growing business. With over two decades building connections in the world of business and finance\, working with over 10\,000 businesses\, running over 100+ workshops\, as well as being a certified trainer and facilitator\, Rita is uniquely qualified to help in all of these respects. In the process\, Partners For Growth will assess\, educate\, and empower its clients and their businesses: a threefold method for mitigating risk\, maximizing profits\, and maintaining long-term success.\n\n \n\nRita and her team run four divisions within Partners for Growth: Growth (business plans\, strategy and funding packages)\, Financial Modeling (costing\, projections and investor models)\, Books (bookkeeping: organizing\, set up and maintenance) and Education (speaking engagements\, workshops and courses).
