March was a remarkably busy month for MyGo Containers™ with three different NACUFS regional conferences. We attended the Continental / Pacific Regional Conference in Reno in the beginning of March. The Midwest Regional Conference in St. Louis followed this. Finally, we attended the Mi-Atlantic / Northeast Regional Conference in Norfolk, VA. It was a lot of travel for the team but it was well worth it to see members of the National Association of College and University Food Services; NACUFS, face-to-face and introduce many of you to the different models of MyGo Containers™.
There were many different questions fielded by our MyGo team at each of the different conferences. We also learned a lot about how several different colleges and universities were handling re-usable to-go containers in their dining operations. In fact, this was one of the most frequently asked questions. It was interesting to learn how different schools had implemented their programs, how they were getting buy-in from their students and what challenges they encountered as they worked toward their sustainability goals. Our MyGo System handout was popular with schools that are considering re-usable to-go food containers for the first time. Our FAQ handout was also popular as it addresses several common questions about MyGo Containers™.
For each show, we had the full line of MyGo Containers™ on display. MyGo Containers™ are the newest innovation in reusable food carry-out containers. On the market. We began work on these containers in late 2019, planning to launch them at the NACUFS 2020 national conference, but that show and subsequent regional shows were cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic. We’re making up for those missed opportunities to meet with customers by attending each regional conference and the NACUFS 2022 National Conference, held this year in Spokane, WA. If we missed you at the regional conferences, we do hope to see you at the National Conference. Look for us in booth 1153, July 14 & 15 in the Spokane Convention Center, Spokane, WA.
