Prior to his position with FMI, he served as the Director of Communication for the American Frozen Food Institute.

David’s presentation will highlight findings from FMI’s recent U.S. Grocery Shopper Trends Report, conducted by the Hartman Group, including insight into why individual food shoppers make the decisions they do and how their attitudes and piecemeal behaviors translate into large-scale shifts that affect supermarket revenues and growth.
