Uetz’s workshop, “Today’s Protein Consumer: Shifting Trends, Changing Expectations,” is set for 1 p.m. on Feb. 14, The workshop will share insight’s from Midan’s recently released proprietary research on sustainability, beef and pork quality attributes, as well as cover takeaways regarding the ever-evolving consumer demands of meat shoppers.
“The agriculture industry must keep up with the ever-changing consumer,” Uetz said. “Consumers have preferences for innovation, health and wellness, and sustainability, but many are feeling economic pressures that are impacting their wallets. They’re making choices, and the agriculture industry must pay attention.”
In addition to being a long-time thought leader in the meat marketing space, Uetz brings firsthand agriculture industry experience to his award-winning agency. Uetz grew up on his family’s cattle ranch in North Dakota and worked for the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association before co-founding Midan with Danette Amstein in 2004. Midan is the first agency of its kind to provide strategic marketing, research and creative services exclusively for the meat industry.
“At Midan, we strive to be champions for the value of meat,” Uetz said. “We regularly check in with consumers to understand their ever-changing relationship with meat, and our research insights guide our marketing strategies. It’s my goal that each workshop attendee leaves with insights and practical takeaways to shape their own careers.”
