If you seek to reduce sodium in cheese, develop new milk products or update your processing facility, then head to the International Dairy Show in September.

This year’s International Dairy Show in Atlanta offers something for everyone involved in dairy-foods processing. C-suite executives can brush up on business management practices and consumer trends. Lab technicians can stay current with the latest information about food safety and traceability, while food scientists can share information about product development and nutrition. Finally, facility managers can learn about sustainability efforts and see the latest equipment for dairy processing plants.

The International Dairy Show, produced by the International Dairy Foods Association, Washington, D.C., runs from Sept. 19-21 at the Georgia World Congress Center, Atlanta.

Among the challenges for cheesemakers is how to reduce sodium in cheese. The show promises to give solutions. Milk processors can learn how to grow market share and maintain brand loyalty. Educational programs will deliver consumer research and show milk’s role in the competitive beverage set.

Experts in food safety will discuss the Food Safety Modernization Act, the Reportable Food Registry and technology to help processors to implement the regulations. Plant managers will hear the latest on corporate social reporting and sustainability reporting, automating production scheduling, lowering transportation costs, overcoming hurdles and accelerating sustainability results.
