Cause & Effect Cause Factors (Donors) – Changing consumer patterns – Enhanced technology and supply chain efficiencies – Profit pressure to generate revenue via secondary market – Less advantageous or minimal tax benefits – More concern for food safety and recalls Effect Factors (Food Banks) – Less canned, dry, shelf stable products – Shift to more perishables, prepared products – Increased sensitivity around product movement – Higher operating costs – More concern for food safety and recalls 9

Donor Realities Looking for unique models and products to capture increased consumer market share Concentrating on cost savings, waste control, community and environmental impact Desire partner relationships that provide best value for business model Increased demands and expectations of its business partners Very concerned for food safety and product recalls 10

Partner Realities Changes are Forcing All of Us to Adapt! A need for a deeper understanding of available product mix Increasing cold storage capacity to accommodate different product types More accountability within handling, storage, distribution and reporting Expanded days / hours for additional access and distribution Education on how to utilize varied products (nutrition information, recipes, food safety, etc.) Recruitment of volunteers with focus on food safety, product handling and distribution practices 11
