In the same vein as last week's episode with Debra Hellbach, James Donaldson brings nearly 30 years of industry knowledge and experience to the helm of the BC Food & Beverage Association. We discuss a lot throughout the conversation including some common challenges that are being faced throughout the industry, upcoming member events, and some great insight into sales and leadership. 

Once again, a great episode for any food processor looking to hear some insights from another of our most well regarded and experienced food industry representatives.
