These are interesting times for the feed and food milling industry. Recent industry events such as VIV China have gone very well indeed.
At VIV China, it was apparent that increasing Chinese consumption continues to have an affect on food and feed milling around the world. China’s rise in population, purchasing power and diet choices mean a rapid rise up the agenda for us all. Adapting is not always easy but the directory is always aiming to connect all sides of the industry.
Staff members who are involved with the directory have also been visiting even more industry leading manufacturers – take a look on Facebook to see our recent travels.
Post-harvest technology has been critical in managing the world’s commodity prices with lower than average prices for wheat and other grains, yet stable and differing prices for animal feed. The power in the value chain of milling continues to grow in the Middle East, North Africa and many other parts of the world. It is sometimes too complex to all know the part that we play within the systems of world markets and what milling products or involvement is valuable. Various trade patterns become ever more intertwined but the directory still serves its audience.
I am excited about every milling event that partners with the publication and so will be glad to say that this directory will be at JTIC in France, 15-16th October in Reims, France. The best reason above all to attend such events is that it provides me with an opportunity to meet lots of other International Milling Directory members from around Europe and beyond and see some advanced technology, the latest machines and products all in one place. Find the International Milling Directory at stand H8 in the main exhibition space.
Recent news with the directory is good for all members; the website – www.internationalmilling.com is now fully updated for all member companies so you can see fully many members’ up to date details. It is a pleasure to now count over 1,500 international members from around the world within the directory.
What a great way to access the industry by simply continuing to use this one directory. After 23 years, it has endured all of the changes that have taken places and continues to be the number one resource in the industry. The new print edition has had more updates and changes than ever before, so the accuracy will be dependable and reliable, just how a mill should be run.
