Co-packing relationships have historically been built on purchase orders and handshakes. That’s changing as food manufacturing evolves and both co-packers and brand owners are seeking written agreements and more formal relationships.

Using real-world examples, he will focus on the legal aspects of the co-packing relationship that can provide increased stability and clarity for both co-packers and brand owners.

Specifically, Glenford will focus on the classic pain point of confidential business information and strategies to understand and protect both stakeholders.
