The Society also produces a regional conference series each year called SFM On Tour . These meetings provide professional development and networking opportunities on a regional basis, while showcasing members' facilities. Scheduled in major North American cities, regional conferences feature the latest information on topics such as food trends, facility design, technology and labor. On Tour offers members an effective way to stay in touch with onsite issues, expand professional networks and discover new resources in their own regional markets. Local Facility Tours Open Doors is SFM's facility tours program, which brings members together on a local level for first-hand experiences at onsite facilities.
Tours focus on practical applications of foodservice management.
Details of local tours and registration information are available on the Society's Web site. The Members Only section contains a number of features accessible only to you.
