NZMP, the dairy ingredients brand of Fonterra, was a sponsor of this year’s conference. The conference brings together global food industry representatives to discuss growing opportunities in the milk protein market. “Fonterra is well known for its whole milk and skim milk powders, but companies may not be as familiar with our higher-value, more advanced ingredient solutions,” says Gowans. “The conference provided us with a great opportunity to speak to potential customers about our wide range of high-value ingredients.” Follow CIO New Zealand on Twitter:@cio_nzSign up for CIO newsletters for regular updates on CIO news, views and events.Join us on Facebook.
