And we did not get disappointed. The FoodTech in Herning is the largest trade fair for food technology in Northern Europe with over 250 exhibitors. Unfortunately, most talks and speak ups were held in Danish, but for us time flied anyways. During the two days at the fair we visited many different suppliers and got a glimpse of promising new technologies that are available for our industry. Moreover, some of us graduates were lucky to meet our mentors or buddies at the fair and used this opportunity for a personal meet-up. And not to forget: We tasted tons of dairy products that were displayed in the course of the International Food Contest - a great chance for us to also taste Arla products that are not available in our home countries as well as products of our competitors.
In November, the PMGP 2022 batch visited the FoodTech trade fair in Herning, Denmark. Happy to be reunited for the first time after the introduction week at the headquarter in Viby, here is what the graduates experienced and how they perceived their first business trip with Arla.
In Arla, everyone tells you that during your graduate journey you have more opportunities to develop and learn than you can imagine. Being now two month in Arla, we can only confirm this with a big YES. And the trade fair in Herning is the best example for this. Even though it was on a quite short notice, all our managers wholeheartedly supported the trip, both as a chance to increase business understanding and as a network opportunity. So after quickly booking accommodations, trains and fair tickets, we were ready to go.
