The team at Eaton Marketing is dedicated to being the best resource for Florida's foodservice operators. Whether it's a commercial kitchen, a restaurant, or an institutional foodservice operation, our collective experience and knowledge are always available at either one of our test kitchens, but this year, we can offer even more resources to Florida operators.
Every two years, the foodservice equipment industry converges for The North American Association of Food Equipment Manufacturers Show. This year, The NAFEM Show will be held in Orlando at the Orange County Convention Center from February 1st through the 3rd. Whether you're an operator, a consultant, a designer, or a foodservice equipment dealer, the Eaton Marketing team would be happy to play the role of host.
We're lucky because this year's show is in our backyard. This means we can have a heavier presence and provide greater support for the manufacturers we represent. We can help our industry partners form greater connections. And we can provide our customers with the answers they need to make important business decisions. The best way for these things to happen is in-person, and we're happy to say The NAFEM Show is finally resuming in-person activities after the cancellation of the 2021 event.
ON THE FLOOR
Our team will guide our customers and partners through the event, setting up personal demonstrations of the latest foodservice equipment. With a team the size of Eaton's, we can direct you to one of our specialists. Looking to enhance your school's serving lines? We have someone who can help. Would you like to maximize the profitability of your beer system? We have someone for that, too. The bottom line is foodservice is a diverse industry with many different needs, so our team at Eaton is set up accordingly to serve you better.
WITH OUR MAFSI COLLEAGUES
The Manufacturers' Agents Association for the Foodservice Industry, or MAFSI, is an organization dedicated to helping foodservice equipment reps like Eaton Marketing provide better services for our customers. During each NAFEM Show, MAFSI holds an event where the new president is sworn in, something our own Kevin Eaton did a few years back when he took the organization's gavel.
WITH OUR PARTNERS
As representatives of the entire Middleby suite of foodservice solutions, you can expect to find part of the Eaton Marketing team within the Middleby campus talking about important industry trends, as well as solutions to help implement them. We will also highlight our other partners listed below, and can easily meet at their booths to talk solutions. The reality is our breadth of equipment solutions is designed to complement one another to create a turnkey resource for everything an operator might need in terms of foodservice equipment. During The NAFEM Show, you can find us with manufacturer partners, as well as foodservice equipment dealers, designers, and consultants who help provide their expertise when creating the perfect kitchen.
Here's a list of the manufacturers that we partner with that will have a booth at NAFEM23:
WITH OUR CUSTOMERS
Most importantly, The NAFEM Show is an opportunity to spend time with our customers and future customers at Eaton Marketing. If you're a foodservice equipment operator and would like personal guidance at the show, we encourage you to reach out to Eaton Marketing so we can help. If you'd prefer a more hands-on experience in the Eaton test kitchens where you can personally demo equipment and test your recipes, we can make that available, as well.
