The growth of fresh produce did not slow down in 2020. In fact, according to United Fresh’s FreshFacts on Retail Q4 2020/Year in Review 2020 report, consumers did not turn to frozen or canned food during the pandemic. It was fresh produce that drove them to the store. 

With fresh produce driving growth, revenue, and customer demand, it’s important to make sure you are providing maximum freshness, shelf-life, and safety. That can’t happen if you are still using manual methods for your procurement process. So where can you find out the latest and greatest technology and solutions specifically designed for the fresh produce industry? You can connect with iTradeNetwork, the global leader in perishables supply chain management at the Canadian Produce Marketing Association (CPMA) Fresh Week, April 12-16.

What is CPMA Fresh Week?

This year, the annual CPMA Fresh Week has gone virtual, which means you don’t have to be IN Canada to connect and network with leaders across the fresh produce supply chain. 

CPMA President, Rom Lemaire told Produce News: “CPMA’s Annual Convention and Trade Show is Canada’s largest event that is entirely dedicated to the fresh fruit and vegetable industry.”

He says this year, being virtual, allows for even more opportunities for more attendees to expand their networks.
