If you run a café or sandwich bar then the Convenience Retailing Show (CRS), at the Birmingham NEC from April 6-9, is the place to go for ideas.

CRS will have a designated sandwich and snack café area where chefs and food technicians will host interactive demonstrations and give advice on how to boost profits. CRS is part of the Food & Drink World 2008 exhibition and will take place in halls seven and eight at the NEC. A ticket to CRS also gives you free entry into the co-located shows Food & Drink Expo, The Baking Industry Exhibition and the International Forecourt & Fuel Equipment exhibition.

Companies such as Bobby’s Foods, Julian Graves, Kettle Foods, Procter & Gamble with Pringles, and Sun Valley will be exhibiting at CRS 2008, which can offer catering businesses profitable peripheral lines, such as snacks and soft drinks.

Soft drink suppliers will include Boost Drinks, Coca-Cola Enterprises, ProJuice and Spring Cool, while for hot drinks, there will be Coffee Nation, Kenco, Simply Coffee and Tchibo.
