PORTLAND, Ore., Aug. 17, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Aunt Fannie’s , nurturing healthy homes, protecting the biome we live in, supporting our immunity and strengthening our families with natural, healthy household cleaning products and pest solutions, today announced that CEO and Founder Mat Franken will speak on a panel at the Grocery Manufacturers Association (GMA) Leadership Forum 2018 held August 16-17 at The Broadmoor in Colorado Springs, CO.

This invitation-only event brings together North American and global top leaders in the Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) industry to take on the big challenges facing the industry – today and tomorrow – and find solutions for manufacturers, retailers and consumers.

Franken is one of only three early-stage founders speaking in the GMA Executive Leadership Tracks of the conference, in a panel titled " A Clear Perspective on Clean Labeling . " The panel will take place August 17 at 2:30 p.m. MT and discuss clean labeling and product transparency, in addition to:

  • Nielsen and Label Insight research found that 39% of U.S. consumers say they would switch from the brands they currently buy to others that provide clearer, more accurate product information.
  • Previously thought to be reserved for small upstarts, transparency has become the calling card for fast-moving consumer goods manufacturers of all sizes trying to capture growth. And there’s a lot the industry can learn from companies that have built their brands on a platform of transparency.

The panel will be moderated by Susan Dunn, President of U.S. Practices and Commercial Strategy at Nielsen and also include Megan Reamer, Co-Founder and CEO of Jackson’s Honest Chips , and Patrick Moorhead, CMO of  Label Insight .
