and Industry Must Coalesce - The Industry is Declining with multiple causes • Bread products are foundational product in most severe decline - Creativity, Education, Innovation Lacking in Industry • GFF current program support is firm but, a recognition that it is not enough • Need Bigger Industry Commitment to Turn the Ship - We are Jockeying for Share of Shrinking Pie -- Instead of Growing the Pie Stakeholder Assessment Source: 2013 GFF interviews, and 2017 Statler Nagle interviews; combined over 65 interviews/35 organizations
• GFF: - Restructuring activities to maintain current programming while checkoff feasibility is assessed - Staffing increases - Funding three research projects • Checkoff Feasibility Project: - Steering Committee formation - Engaging the direct funders and other stakeholders in a transparent process - Initial meeting January 10; Second meeting March 13
Coming Months A Deliberative Process • Steering Committee Will: - Integrate research and analytic findings - Construct an ROI model to help define the parameters of funding, governance, and strategy - Build the architecture of a marketing framework - Conduct innovation assessment to determine if a checkoff could substantially improve rate and quality of Industry innovation
Coming Months Up to now, this is an idea… No decision will be made until after AFTER the Steering Committee assesses three classes of questions AND determines if there is support among companies to be assessed. 1. The Money Questions: - Projected annual assessment necessary to influence sales - Product mix to be assessed - Level of assessment across the product mix 2. Market Sizing Questions: - Are there exemptions? If so, what? - How are imports/exports treated? 3. Governance: - Board representation and nomination process - Referendum voting and timing requirements
