Inside Washington: Congressional Agenda for Foodservice Regulations 
Foodservice Track
Wednesday, October 21 | 9:15 AM to 10:15 AM    Location: NACSPAC Lounge 

Foodservice is one of the most vital sectors of the convenience store business. As profits on fuel sales continue to be dismal, what the consumer buys in the store is more important than ever. Hear what is on the Congressional agenda to regulate the industry on issues from menu labeling to food safety.

What You Will Learn

  • How your commissary business may be affected by new proposals to overhaul the FDA
  • What you can expect from the FDA in relation to recalls and the trace back system
  • The current status of the menu labeling agreement reached in both the House and Senate and how it affects those with 20 or more locations
  • Information on other proposals such as sweetened beverage tax aimed at preventative health care initiatives while raising revenue for the government
