AgGateway wrapped up another successful annual meeting last week in Austin, Texas.
“We’ve had increase in attendance, increase in registrations, increase in in sponsorship. It’s been just a solid year for the conference,” said AgGateway CEO Brent Kemp. “The conversations, the energy, the discussions and debates that we fostered here have all been super. We say bring your people and your problems here because we’re the place to to have the conversations, to get them solved. And boy did we.”
Kemp says one key topic this year has been identifying end user businesses and farmers for the purpose of helping retailers manage the rebate programs. “This is something that’s not new to the industry. We’ve been doing it since at least 1998 in one form or another, but we’ve got decades of stuff layered on top of things and everybody came together this week and said the system isn’t working as efficiently as it should be. How do we fix it together?”
