Gourmet Trading Company President, Brian Miller, will be a featured speaker at this year’s International Asparagus Symposium where he will discuss asparagus industry growth. The event will take place on Thursday, September 12, 2013 in Lima, Peru.
Brian, states, "I am honored and excited to speak at the upcoming symposium. The growth of the fresh asparagus industry over the past two decades has been driven by a fascinating combination of year round supply and promotion at retail and foodservice. I look forward to sharing the insights Gourmet Trading has had over the past 20 years with the rest of the industry."
For more than 20 years, Gourmet Trading Company has imported asparagus to the United States, according to a press release. The company is now a prominent year-round grower, packer and shipper of fresh green, white and purple asparagus making President Brian Miller the perfect candidate to discuss the value of year-round availability of asparagus to this year’s attendees.
