Strategic Executive Exchange

Build powerful business connections.

Strategic Executive Exchange is FMI's executive networking program connecting senior leaders from food retail and wholesale companies with C-suite executives from supplier, manufacturing, and service organizations.

The program offers:

Exclusive one-on-one meetings between retail/wholesale executives and supplier-side C-suite leaders
Direct access to senior decision-makers on both sides of the table
Structured time for strategic dialogue, focused on partnership-building and measurable business outcomes

Strategic Executive Exchange is designed for executives who want targeted, high-level conversations through dedicated meetings built to forge partnerships and drive results.

Retailers & Wholesalers

Sit down for private, in-depth conversations with industry leaders from across the supplier, manufacturer, and service provider communities. It’s your chance to explore fresh business strategies and spark new opportunities.

These valuable meetings help you build stronger partnerships—or create new ones—all with the goal of boosting revenue and driving growth.

Suppliers, Manufacturers and Service Providers

Welcome customers into your own, branded SEE Suite for private, focused meetings. These conversations give you a front-row seat to the strategic priorities of both current and potential partners and a chance to show how your company can help meet their needs.

It’s the perfect setting to share what sets your business apart, highlight your latest products, and offer insights into where the industry is headed.

How It Works

Manufacturers, suppliers, and service providers host 45-minute strategic meetings in private SEE Suites, designed for senior-level conversations—ideally with CEOs, COOs, and other top executives.

FMI makes it easy by providing an online scheduler to help coordinate meetings, though confirmed appointments are not guaranteed. Each company is responsible for securing its own meetings and setting the agenda topics to make the most of every conversation.
