What do you enjoy most about being in your industry?

I think a big perk is events. You know, being in the food and beverage space, there's always fun food festivals that you are in the circle of or can be vendors for.

But definitely that in-person element of meeting a lot of people in the food and beverage industry can be tiring at points. Sometimes it's just back to back sampling, or back to back, just going out and meeting people in the field.

But yeah, it's always really nice to just get out of the office or home office and meet people in real life.
