June 25, 2010 – Atlanta, Georgia, United States…[Lizbeth Elejalde/IAD]
More than 1,000 people have come through the Inter-American Health Food Company exhibit during the first few days of the General Conference Session.
The timer goes off and 30 seconds is the time that each participant has to show their skill at a cup game. Others get a chance to pick up a logo of one of the IAHFC branches like Colpac, Venepan, Icolpan or Soyapac and throw a large dice to see if it lands on the logo chosen. Others get to do push ups. These are some of the ways that children and adults have fun when they approach the IAHFC at the Georgia World Congress Center.
This is the result of a team of people who during the last six months have been planning the best way for delegates and visitors alike to get acquainted with the seven countries where the Food Company has branches: Colpac in Mexico, Venepan in Venezuela, College Health Foods in Trinidad and Tobago, Productos Granix in Dominican Republic, Boulangerie Adventiste in Haiti, Cetebedi in Costa Rica, and Viva Mejor in Colombia.
Colpac Manager Jose Flores and Venepan Manager Gerardo Chacin, who are part of a four-person team in charge of the booth, explain that the idea of games was to attract the public in winning small prizes like pens, mirrors, cookies, mouse pads and more as souvenirs and mementos of the enjoyable time they had at the IAHFC exhibit booth.
