Taste NY Bar debuts at Barclays Center
A perfect match!
On Thursday, February 18, Barclays Center debuted its latest innovation: The first Taste NY Bar, the result of a partnership with Taste NY, an initiative launched by Governor Andrew Cuomo in 2013 to promote New York’s food and beverage industries. The bar is located in the main concourse at Barclays, which a majority of attendees walk through.
CEO of Brooklyn Sports and Entertainment Brett Yormark was joined by Howard Zemsky, president, CEO and commissioner of Empire State Development (ESD); Commissioner of the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets, Richard Ball; and Assemblymember Latrice Walker as well as representatives from New York State’s craft beverage industry for the announcement.
