The Restaurant Canada show had it’s first ever virtual trade show that took place from February 28th to March 4th of 2021… and this year, I was given a back stage pass to check out the virtual show and provide fptv fans a first hand account of what it was all about.
Now of course, you can’t necessarily shrink down 4 days worth of intense content in to 5 or 8 minutes, so that’s why we’re broken the RC Show in to 6 parts to give you digestible pieces… as my favourite author Zig Ziglar always used to say…. How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time…
So folks here’s the rundown of what we’ll be covering of the next 6 weeks:
1. RC SHOW TOUR – how it worked on and off screen.
2. FPTV’s TOP 5 Exhibitors…
3. The RC SHOW SPEAKERS CORNER - highlighting top content that we had a chance to drop in on
4. RC SHOW SPECIAL INTERVIEWS that we had one-on-one time with
5. RC SHOW TAKE AWAYS on COVID 19 and Food Packaging
6. RC SHOW TOTAL RECAP – of this jam packed event…
This is my first time I’ve participated in a virtual trade show, and so it was like having a new app on your phone.. when you go in to it, you just want to press on everything to see what it does, it’s not like you can break it … raight??

Nivera’s advice was very relevant and ever green… and here’s what she had to say.
Change is constant, and it is moving at a fast pace.
There is opportunity for growth and development.
Post COVID-19, she is a huge optimist for the future as restaurants have been, and will continue to be part of special moments and part of lives.
Her highlight takeaways were :
1. Be relevant
2. Guest Expectations
3. Evolve and be authentic
4. Be Easy – convenience from a guest perspective
5. Ease for your team members
6. Find ways to be distinctive, and be purposeful and lean in to it.
