Food for Thought

It was tough, but Team Fornazor braved the record-breaking heat and attended SIAL Paris October 2012. Not only was it hot walking the boulevards of Paris, it was very hot in Parc des Expositions de Paris-Nord Villepinte. The weather was suffocating, but we were in Paris, so how could we really complain?

Drought in America Has Domino Effect

As of mid-August 2012, the summer drought has covered over 60 percent of the contiguous 48 states.

Why does this matter?

Droughts can have serious health, social, economic and political impacts with far-reaching consequences. Water is one of the most essential commodities for human survival, and when there isn’t enough water to support food crops, well….that spells Trouble.

No Yolk! We’ve Got Eggs

Over the past 30+ years, Fornazor International has built its business on trading agricultural commodities. A relatively new commodity to the company’s portfolio is USDA shell eggs. We only work with suppliers who can meet the varying needs of the international market.

Gulfoods: Where the World Talks Food

Team Fornazor traveled to Dubai and braved a sandstorm during Gulfood, one of the largest food, hospitality and ingredient trade shows in the world. Everything in Dubai is Bigger! Taller!! More Excessive!!! than any other place on earth. The show lived up to Dubai’s larger-than-life reputation and attracted over 62,000 attendees with more than 3,800 exhibitors from 88 countries.

Soybeans on the Rise While Corn Drops Due to World Supply Gain Cuts

The price of soybeans seems to be trending upward following speculation on corn exports during the final two months of 2011. Corn fell to a two-month low on the speculation that the global production is rising and reduced overseas demand for the crop from the U.S. The country is still the world's largest export of corn, although, soybeans are on the rise.

In the Land of Camels, Palm Trees and Babagonush

Fornazor’s Specialty Food Team participated in a Focused Trade Mission to Dubai, UAE and Doha, Qatar. The mission offered a focused dialogue with pre-selected appointments in the commercial bakery sector. Susan Rosenthal Jay and Anthony Micci met with more than a dozen owners and general managers of leading commercial bakeries and ingredient distributors. Who knew that pizza was a staple in Doha, right along with hummus and tabouli salad? There were also receptions hosted in each city by the country’s Ambassador…a very enjoyable way to network!

Walking the Kosher Hub of the Food Market

Team Fornazor roamed the Kosherfest yesterday, held at the Meadowlands Convention Center in New Jersey. Kosherfest is the world’s largest kosher food, foodservice, beverage, wine and spirits trade show, and now in its 23rd year. We enjoyed every bite, tasting a little here, and a little more there. There were unlimited goodies to eat….from gefilte fish and spreads to desserts….and everything in between.
