What does a Food broker do?
Represents your products to a variety of prospective buyers. These buyers could be retail grocery chains, drug chains, mass merchandisers and independent stores. To sell your product and achieve a listing, a broker will make presentations to the head office of these chains; most decisions are made at regional headquarters. Once a product is listed, then the broker will schedule promotions, keep communication with head office to ensure direct feedback and co–ordination between head office and retail accounts.
