In connection with presentations and workshops

on the 7th – 9th May 2008

in Bonn, Germany

The event is hosted by the CCA member RUNGIS express, subsidiary of CCG Holding AG. Rungis Express AG is the biggest trading company for luxury and exclusive food articles in Germany, a well known brand for over 25 years in the upper class gastronomic market. Rungis offers a wide range of products with 5.000 daily available fresh- and dry-food articles, by advance order of clients this number is raised up to approx. 20.000 articles. During our stay we will visit the facilities and storage rooms and are invited to an exclusive on-site dinner.

Highlight of our meeting will be the presentation and workshop to the subject “CO2 – Emission and the Environmental Debate”. Almost everyday new facts regarding carbon footprint is reported in the media.  It is very hard to separate speculations fromreal facts since most of the sources are not identified. Thus the CCA worked with JP Emond, University of Florida and Tony Wright, Exelsius through the publications and researches and will present the results at the AGM2008. The event will take place in the city of Bonn, Germany in the Hotel Königshof Bonn.

More details to come soon! Mark your calendar for the challenging and stimulating debate with industry experts and the excellent opportunity for networking!
