Two exciting events will be hosted by the Canadian Produce Marketing Association (CPMA), and now is the time to secure your spot. The organization recently opened online registration for the 2024 CPMA Annual Convention and Trade Show and the International Sustainability Summit.
“Our Annual Convention and Trade Show attracts attendees from across the globe,” said CPMA President Ron Lemaire. “This year, we are bringing together this international audience to not only enhance their skills and expand their professional network within the Canadian marketplace but to also engage them in discussions that advance sustainability, an important issue that impacts our industry worldwide.”
CPMA’s Annual Trade Show is one of Canada’s largest events dedicated to the fresh fruits and vegetable industry, a press release stated. This year’s show will take place April 23–25 and will feature over 600 booths representing more than 270 companies from around the world.
