Watch on YouTube –  Zak teaches a Masters Class at UCONN – Ep.18



Zak taught a Masters Class in Branding & Marketing at his Alma Mater UConn (The University of Connecticut).  This talk forced Zak to look back at his evolution since he graduated in 2007.  He talks about how he chose UConn, the obstacles he overcame, his achievements and how it set him up for the real world after.

He talks about how he entered the family business and soaked up everything he could from his mentors. As he consumed all this knowledge, he became inspired with an idea and implements it – which invigorated a once stale industry.  The consistent opportunities continue to blossom every day!

This is Zak’s story.  Appreciate the vulnerability. Its a deep dive into his personal growth journey.  It is a blueprint for anyone who wants to own their own business, become an influencer in their industry or simply learn more.

To sum Zak up:  “I don’t need perfect, I just need possible”

Watch on YouTube  – Zak Romanoff speaks on The State of the Protein Industry – Ep.17

The protein industry in the US has experienced many shocks and changes this year. Watch Zak discuss his thoughts about the current state of the protein industry and where things may be headed in the future. The panel is comprised of industry experts who work in various areas of the supply chain from manufacturing & processing to food retail. The discussion will involve key issues related to the protein industry:

• Consumer buying patterns of traditional meat categories

• How retailers are adjusting to consumer patterns and supply issues

• Long term trends impacting meat industry perceptions

• Supply chain dynamics pre and post-pandemic

• Competition from alternative meat companies

• Where things are headed in 2020

The Food Institute:

Founded in 1928, The Food Institute has a single purpose: providing information. The Food Institute was founded by Seattle food broker Gordon C. Corbaley who decided to put out a semi-regular posting for his principals — mainly canners — and his customers, so they could keep better informed about what was going on in the marketplace. He called his postings The News From Oregon and Washington. The reports were welcomed by the trade as poor communication systems back in the Coolidge era resulted in a great deal of business being done by poorly informed (at times actually misinformed) buyers and sellers.
