Full Delegates gain admission to meal functions, social events and educational opportunities, consisting of the Chair’s Welcome Reception, Business Sessions, After Party, Awards Brunch and other meals, including the Delegate and Companion Breakfast, during which you’ll hear from keynote speaker Chef Massimo Capra.
“This year’s event focuses on the component of flavour in produce and the effect that the globally interconnected industry has on our evolving tastes,” said Mario Masellis, Chair of the 2020 CPMA Convention and Trade Show Organizing Committee. “We expect the entertainment and production at the Convention and Trade Show to ‘wow’ attendees in the same way that spectacular flavours do.”
“The 95th annual CPMA Convention and Trade Show will offer numerous networking and educational opportunities to help businesses flourish,” said CPMA President Ron Lemaire. “As the premier event in Canada for the fresh fruit and vegetable industry, it is extremely valuable for companies in our sector to make connections at this event.
