The California Grape and Tree Fruit League Annual Meeting is in the not too distant future and Barry Bedwell, President, CGTFL, has joined AndNowUKnow to discuss the upcoming event. The meeting is set to commence on March 25th and will continue thru the 27th at the Ritz Carlton Resort in Half Moon Bay. What the members want to focus on this year is one specific workshop instead of the range of workshops that the annual event is used to hosting.<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"> This year, the single workshop relates to the demand side of the equation; better known as the retailers. The members put their heads together and came up with the theme, "What Keeps You Awake At Night." Individuals from the retail community will be attending the event, led by the Moderator, recently retired Reggie Griffin from Kroger. Mr. Griffin will be joined by Steve Burnham, Senior Vice President of Produce, Floral and Bakery, Safeway; Craig Ignatz, Vice President of Produce and Floral, Merchandising, Giant Eagle; and Frank Padilla, GMM Produce and Meat, Costco Wholesale.<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">http://www.cgtfl.com<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">
