"We at Seald Sweet are very pleased with the corporate perspective video from Capital Media Group & the Feast or Famine series. We feel that we received very good value for our investment and efforts. The quality of the production was great and the production team was very professional. We believe we would not have been able hire our own film crew and produce the video for the amount of the sponsorship pledge... The Capital Media team was a pleasure to work with and went out of their way to ensure we were pleased with the results."

- Kimberly Flores, Marketing Manager, Seald Sweet International

"Speaking on behalf of DSM Nutritional Products, we thank you for how your organization has supported the process in working with us from start to finish. Second, we could not be happier with the way the Feast or Famine segment that we sponsored turned out. To date, everyone that has viewed this segment has been very impressed and pleased with the final product. In the end, this part of the sponsorship was the main reason we signed up for the program and we are very pleased with the result.

With that David, I thank you again for your support with this project. As I shared with you during our conversation yesterday, if our organization here in the North American has any need for your type of services, you will be the first company we will call.
The very best of luck to you and your company in the future!"
Kind Regards,

My name is Hugo Guedes and I'm Chief of the Food Microbilogy Laboratory of The National Veterinary Investigation Lab in Portugal, I was invited to give some classes in the University about Food Safety and I saw your video in youtube ("Food Safety in the Supply Chain") and I think it's very good and important for the students to see it.

I think the University doesn't have internet connection in the class rooms so I need the video in my computer. The classes are this friday. There's any possibility for me to download it or you to send it to me?

Yours sincerely,
Hugo Guedes

Jeff, You were so kind as to share your NWA video on Building a Better Burger with me and I had asked if it would be OK to include it in our Video Library that we make available to Members.

IAFP makes videos available to our members for their use in educating and training. It is a service available only to IAFP members.
Please let me know if it is ok with you that we include this video in our library.

Best regards,
