Gilles Froment, Senior Vice-President, Lactalis Canada and recently elected President of the International Dairy Federation (IDF), is participating in SIAL Dairy Talks at SIAL Canada this year.

Visitors can attend two in-depth sessions tomorrow focusing on the economic outlook for the dairy industry and innovating for multicultural and emerging markets. In the first session, Gilles Froment will share the stage with Mathieu Frigon, President & CEO Dairy Processors Association of Canada (DPAC), and Annie AcMoody, Chief Policy & Economics OfficerDairy Farmers of Canada (DFC). The second session will include experts Nichola Forsyth, Marketing Director Yogourt & Cultured Lactalis Canada, Mahdi Hachana, Director – Marketing And Consumer Insights – North America Fontaine Santé, and Sarab Hans, President Hans Dairy.

When asked who should attend these sessions, Mr Froment underlined that they are “designed for a diverse audience, including dairy producers, processors, retailers, policymakers, and industry experts.” He added that “anyone interested in the latest trends, challenges, and opportunities in the dairy sector will benefit from attending” as the sessions will provide valuable insights and foster discussions that can help shape the future of dairy.

Mr Froment’s aim is that attendees walk away from the sessions feeling more informed: “I hope attendees leave with a deeper understanding of the current economic landscape of the dairy sector, the importance of sustainability, and the need for innovation. Additionally, I aim to inspire collaboration and encourage stakeholders to adopt best practices that will drive the sector forward.”
