Chain Bridge Club - Trademagazin

What is the Chain Bridge Club?

The Lánchíd Club (Lánchíd Association) was founded in the autumn of 2003 by 12 top executives who are key professionals in the FMCG sector, working in trading, manufacturing, or service areas. The members of the club, which operates in association form, do not represent their companies but come together as private individuals to share the professional knowledge, experience, and market insight they have accumulated, making it available to the public. Their mission is to help processors and retailers assist other participants in the value chain, acting as connectors and advisors.

Since its founding, additional respected professionals have joined the Club, which now operates with 50 members. The association is funded by the members from their own taxed income.

Since 2004, club members have organized an annual food industry conference, involving institutional, market research, and other food sector experts to discuss current issues.

Since 2007, every year during the last week of September, they have jointly organized a conference with Trade magazine in Tapolca at Hotel Pelion under the name Business Days.

They actively support the professional dinners regularly organized by Trade magazine since 2007. The purpose of the Business Dinners is to facilitate discussions on current issues affecting the food industry with invited experts outside the club, whose opinions and insights FMCG decision-makers are eager to hear. Through this event series, the club also strives to fulfill its original mission.

In addition to events, an important activity of the club is the creation of the Lánchíd Knowledge Base. This makes available foreign works in Hungarian that help company executives, sales, and marketing colleagues perform their daily tasks efficiently and find solutions to emerging problems.
