Career Pathways for Students

With nearly half of our existing working population due to retire, ensuring there is a pipeline of talent for the food and beverage industry is more important than ever. Additionally, talent is required if we are to double our food production by the year 2050 to feed a global population of 9.7 billion.

Inspire the next generation of talent into the career-making possibilities of our food and beverage industry with these resources.

To inspire the next generation of talent into the career-making possibilities of the food and beverage industry, FaB Wisconsin hosts its one-day Farm-Factory-Fork (FFF) High School Career Discovery events. Since 2014, over 2,500 high school students have met with an impressive collection of exhibitors, including ingredients, consumer product and packaging makers, grocery retail, and professional service firms focused on the industry.
