School Nutrition Industry Conference

Gabe Aiello and Regional Sales Director Denise Lessard attended SNIC. As always we are happy to renew acquaintances and catch up with old friends. Attendance was greater than ever and the General Sessions concentrated on great marketing ideas. PCS customers were well represented with three present and former customers receiving FAME awards and Jessica Shelly (former Fame Award winner, Cincinnati PS) and Bertrand Weber (Minneapolis PS) serving as panelists for the USDA update session.

Congratulations to FAME Award winners!
