his unmissable event in the
wheat-flour-bread calendar sees JTIC
welcoming more than 1,000 participants on each of the two days of the Fair.
From the four corners of the world, milling
and cereal professionals come to Reims
to discover what France and Europe has
to offer in the way of equipment, ingredients, products, services and training.
This year will be marked by numerous
surprises on the theme of combinations and
people in the industry working together.
Organised by AEMIC, the alumni association for technical schools and companies in the
cereal industry, JTIC is an opportunity to talk,
discuss, meet, and learn in an unparalleled
atmosphere.
With companies developing, regulations
evolving and climates changing, the wheatflour-bread industry is more than ever a focus
of political, economic and social debate. JTIC
conferences strive to provide accurate information on four topics:
Sustainability
Cereal sustainability can be addressed at
international or industry level (hard wheat in
France, for example), and clearly also at individual company level. Some of the questions
the session hopes to answer include:
• What are the prospects for sustainable
supply at international level?
• How do we measure the sustainability of
an industry?
• What research projects are being
conducted?
• Is it possible to be both sustainable and
competitive?
Cereal operators, scientists, farmers and
policy-makers will be there to present their
approaches to this challenge.
Road transport
The logistics of road transport is essential
to cereal industry operators and is subject to
numerous regulatory changes. A conference
56 | September - october 2013
chaired and led by Bernard Valluis at which
operators, cereal professionals, and regulation
and transport players will offer answers on
strategic directions for industry professionals.
Hot topics include opening up of highways to
44-tonne trucks, the eco-tax, food safety in
transit and town centre traffic restrictions.
Cereal quality
This conference will focus on quality levers,
genetics and variability in the expression of
genetic results depending on year, climate,
and immediate environment. Particular attention will be paid to the establishment of
new recommended varieties to satisfy millers’
expectation.
by Industries des Céréales review. Participants
are encouraged to submit a poster on the
theme of bridging the gap between research
and practice.
At the end of the fair, two poster winners
will be selected by a jury based on the following
criteria:
• The scientific character and originality of
the subject
• The understandability and quality of the
presentation
• The prospects for their usability in the
short, medium and long term

Sensitivity to gluten
Traditionally devoted to social and community issues, the last half-day will this year
address gluten-intolerance claims. An essential
structural ingredient of bread, gluten has been
accused of all manner of maladies, and has
come close to being stripped of all its beneficial
virtues. More and more people are deciding
to exclude it from their diet. AEMIC will be
presenting a defence of gluten and explode the
contemporary myth.
A fair synonymous with innovation
This year, more than 100 suppliers
of materials, ingredients and services are
expected at the main exhibition stage in the
centre of the conference hall. They will also
be able to take advantage of workshops to
present their latest innovations to the fair’s
visitors.
The ideal forum for innovation, to discover
the new services, products and processes being
applied in the industry, JTIC workshops are
open to all participants and are always a key
attraction.
The products and services presented will go
through a preselection process for their innovative character and their practical applications in
the cereal industry.
There will also be a poster session organised

Jobs and training
Every year at JTIC, AEMIC organises a job
fair accessible free of charge for all employers
in the industry.
In contrast to the national trend, the French
cereal industry offers a dynamic job market with
real career opportunities. The only problem is
generally matching up recruiters’ needs with job
seekers’ requirements. The role of the AEMIC
is to offer the right people, at the right time, for
available vacancies.
As part of the association’s ongoing placement / recruitment activities, the job fair
encourages companies to get together with candidates.

In addition to the bar area, which
is always a great success, new social
spaces will also be accessible for
visitors to punctuate their time with
some relaxing moments.
However, the social highlight of
the event is without doubt the gala
evening. The 2012 evening at Mumm
and the tribute to Fabien Pelous set
a high precedent so the 2013 event
is eagerly anticipated. The organisers
haven’t revealed the exact details but
promise lots of surprises, emotion and
conviviality for all participants.
