How to become a member
Cooks and confectioners' work is a heavy one. It requires both, a good deal of physical efforts and imagination, as well as creativity. It is also time-consuming. Therefore it is only natural that chefs have found it necessary to set up an association of their own, whose members could meet several times a year to rub shoulders, share experience, and get acquainted with new products, equipment and technologies. Furthermore, a national association is a prerequisite for joining the worldwide institutions, establishing business relations with organizations of the neighbouring countries, and being attractive in the eyes of employers and supporters.
More than 90 specialists of the country's public catering establishments are the Association's members. The president is Valius Cepanonis. The main supporters of LRVVKA are UAB Reaton, AS Paulig Baltic, Farm Frites Poland S.A., Bonduelle Polska S.A., Nestle Ice Cream Polska, ŽŪB Nematekas, UAB Sangaida, UAB Sanitex, UAB Baltic Master, UAB Dasita, UAB Neo textile, UAB Kemitek, UAB Manjana. Media sponsors are magazines: Geras skonis, Restoranų verslas, Gurmano gidas Geras skonis, Restoranų verslas.
The Association is planning to have general meetings in January, February, April, September, and November. At the meetings, the members will be acquainted with companies supplying raw materials and equipment, their new products, and discounts they are offering. The participants will also be given an opportunity to get involved in creative activities.
