FranConnect at Food World Summit 2026

Safety, Quality and Operational Excellence at Scale

October 5–7, 2026 · Gaylord Texan Resort & Convention Center · Grapevine, TX

Food World Summit brings senior leaders across food safety, manufacturing, supply chain, operations and quality together to explore the strategies, technology and operating models shaping the future of food production.

Why Attend Food World Summit?

Food safety and quality leaders are being asked to do more than document compliance. They need to identify risk earlier, connect findings to corrective action, build accountability across locations and facilities, and give executives a clearer picture of what is happening operationally.

Food Safety & Quality

Explore how leading organizations are strengthening food safety, QA/QC and quality management systems.

Manufacturing & Operations

Connect quality programs to the realities of production, frontline execution and operational performance.

Supply Chain & Compliance

Discuss risk, standards, accountability and the systems needed to manage complex operating environments.

350+

Senior Food Industry Attendees

The organizer reports more than 350 attendees, with 82% at director level and above, representing 60+ global organizations.

From Audit Findings to Corrective Action

Standardize Audits & Inspections

Create consistent processes for assessing quality, food safety and operational standards across locations or facilities.

Identify Issues Earlier

Surface patterns and repeat findings so teams can address risk before it becomes a larger problem.

Launch Corrective Action

Turn findings into visible, assigned actions with ownership, follow-up and completion tracking.

Connect Training to Issues

Use targeted learning to reinforce standards and correct the behaviors behind repeat quality or compliance problems.
