Buyer-Supplier Matchmaking at Making It In Michigan Forms
Supplier Application
MICHIGAN FOOD & BEVERAGE BUSINESSES: Would you like to get your Michigan-made innovative products in front of buyers and distributors?
Pure Michigan Business Connect (PMBC) and the Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development (MDARD) are excited to partner with the MSU Product Center on the 2023 Making It In Michigan event. As a part of the Making It In Michigan event, PMBC & MDARD will host one-on-one matchmaking meetings bringing together purchasers including grocers, retailers, distributors, institutional buyers, or others looking to source Michigan-made food and beverage products, with Michigan food, beverage and agricultural businesses from around the state.
Not all businesses may be selected for meetings, but will be able to take advantage of other great Making It In Michigan resources and programming opportunities. Please note this application is separate from registration for the Making It In Michigan tradeshow and conference.
We encourage you to review these resources to prepare you to be "buyer-ready", and to learn of additional business support services through PMBC and MDARD.
