Public Relations for the Food Industry

The food industry is dynamic and complex. What ends up on your plate has journeyed from the grower, to the manufacturer, food processor, cold storage facility and supermarket. Public relations and media outreach help communicate those messages.

The U.S. food supply is one of the safest in the world. With the recent COVID-19 pandemic, we’ve seen shortages of frozen foods and some staple items – who could forget the toilet paper shortage? But it wasn’t because of a food shortage. It was the complexity of the food supply chain that serves the food service industry and retailers and all that entails to shift operations.

Food is integral to our existence. We want our food to be safe, tasty and healthy.

Many companies are involved in making this happen, and Alpine helps them communicate those positive messages with the world.

We work with companies involved in High Pressure Processing (HPP), a cold pressure technology that kills pathogens in foods, while maintaining their freshness, taste and quality.

Alpine Communications has experience in many areas of the food industry, from third-party service providers to HPP equipment manufacturers to cold chain companies. We have helped increase brand awareness and share of voice for food companies that seek to produce healthy, safe, and great-tasting foods, as well as those companies involved in the cold chain process.
