The Canadian Produce Marketing Association (CPMA) is proud to announce the 18 participants for the 2017 Passion for Produce (PFP) program at the CPMA Annual Convention and Trade Show in Toronto, May 9 to 11.
Passion for Produce was created by CPMA in 2010 as an added value to members and to provide rising stars in the produce industry with the opportunity to accelerate their professional development through a unique mentoring experience at their Annual Convention and Trade Show.
"Passion for Produce provides mentoring and education in a fast-paced but fun setting where participants learn through targeted mentoring sessions and networking events," said Ron Lemaire, President of CPMA. "This program also gives participants the opportunity to increase their knowledge beyond the scope of their current role within the industry."
Over the three-day CPMA Convention and Trade Show, PFP participants connect with industry leaders and mentors, participate in off-site tours, interactive sessions, networking events, and learn all they can about the fresh produce industry in Canada. PFP participants gain knowledge through first-hand experiences,
discussions and networking that empowers them to return to work with an enriched understanding and renewed enthusiasm for the produce industry.
