Become an Annual Sponsor

AHF works to build critical access points to the self-operated healthcare/LTC communities at every level and stage of your sponsorship. Our annual packages include both year-round and conference-specific benefits for in-person touchpoints. AHF estimates that the self-operated facilities account for more than $8 billion in annual food purchases of the total $12 billion US market. When you add equipment, technology,  and service spends into the mix the number grows exponentially.

Our sponsors agree that our members are highly engaged, come ready to find trusted vendors, and have purchasing power. Not only is the healthcare foodservice market growing, but the portion of that market belonging to self-operated facilities is also growing. It is estimated that approximately 60-70% of the healthcare and LTC foodservice industry are self-operated.

Who Should Sponsor? Business partners in the foodservice, distribution, technology, software, equipment, and consulting services fields are encouraged to join AHF.
