How to prepare B2B prospecting at Snackex 2026
Preparation should be tactical. Start by setting a clear objective for each meeting: technical validation, commercial terms or order placement. Filter the exhibitor list by product categories relevant to your targets and request meetings in advance when possible.
Bring concise sample kits with technical datasheets and a one-page company capacity summary covering output, lead times and certifications. During technical conversations focus on production capacity, compliance and logistics. Use the Snack Science Hub sessions to identify speakers or companies with the technical expertise you need and arrange follow ups.
Structure your on-site agenda in 30-minute blocks and reserve windows for unplanned conversations on the show floor. Assign post-meeting follow up responsibilities within your team and prepare a standard follow-up note template to capture next steps.
