Economic drivers, such as tax laws, technology, labor, consumer behavior and legislation, all present challenges to poultry and egg companies’ financial management. When combined with the daily activities required to recruit and retain accounting professionals and implement and maintain cyber security and internal controls, financial managers require the best information to make sound decisions for their company. USPOULTRY’s 2023 Financial Management Seminar, developed by poultry and egg industry financial professionals, offers insight and tools to help increase a company’s bottom line and confront the unique, complex issues a company faces. This year’s seminar will be held June 19–21 at the Omni Amelia Island Resort in Fernandina Beach, Fla.

“This year’s Financial Management Seminar will cover a variety of topics, including a Washington review, exports update, tax update, insurance trends and much more. Attendees will leave with information on the latest trends and with a financial understanding to help secure their company’s future and increase their bottom line,” said Mulham Shbeib, CFO for Mar-Jac Poultry, and program committee chairman.
