March 12, 2026 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM (EDT)

Description

Presented by Cara Tomich & Ryan Woodbury from Fishbowl Inventory Management
March 12, 2026 | 1:00 p.m. ET | Live on Zoom 

Join FCIA and Fishbowl Inventory Management for a practical, chocolate-industry-focused webinar designed to help fine chocolate makers strengthen operations, reduce costly mistakes, and scale production without sacrificing quality.

As chocolate brands grow, managing ingredients, production runs, shelf life, and distribution can quickly become overwhelming. This session will explore how modern inventory and manufacturing systems help chocolate businesses maintain craftsmanship while improving efficiency, profitability, and operational control.

Fishbowl’s manufacturing and inventory platform is purpose-built for food and beverage brands, offering tools that support batch and lot traceability, expiration and shelf-life tracking, real-time inventory visibility, and production workflows designed specifically for batching and scaling. The system also integrates seamlessly with QuickBooks for accurate costing and financial clarity, while supporting multi-location growth and distribution as brands expand.

In short, Fishbowl helps chocolate makers protect product quality, control costs, and grow smoothly without operational meltdowns.

This webinar is free for all FCIA members and just $10 for non-members, making it an affordable opportunity to learn how smarter systems can support your business growth.

As an added benefit, FCIA members receive an exclusive $500 discount when signing up with Fishbowl Inventory Management. Details about this member discount are available on the Discounts page in the Members Only section of the FCIA website at www.FineChocolateIndustry.org.

Whether you’re refining current processes or preparing for your next stage of growth, this session offers practical insights to help your chocolate business run more smoothly and profitably.

Register and join us on March 12 to discover how to keep your operations cool even when production heats up.
