Food Marketplace Exchange.

The Food Industry Exchange, sponsored by FMI - The Food Industry Association, creates an infrastructure and sustainable marketplace to immediately address the urgent needs of retailers and wholesalers by providing collaborative tools, products and services.

This subscription based platform is not only specific to the COVID-19 pandemic, but also fills a long-term need for product discovery and procurement.

Membership is free through September 30. A nominal fee applies and will auto-renew each month thereafter.
