United Fresh launches exhibitor education webinar series
United Fresh Produce Association gathered its exhibiting community for the first time since announcing its return to live events this June 24-26 in Los Angeles, CA., to kick off a four-event education webinar series that will guide exhibitors through the benefits of this year’s online and in-person experience.
During a year of uncertainty and virtual-only engagement, United Fresh worked with its exhibitors through pre-event education to ensure a successful transition online for United Fresh LIVE! held in June 2020. This year, the association will once again usher exhibitors toward success of the hybrid event through a series of webinars as they plan to bring the industry together once again – in-person and online – for a choose-your-own-adventure experience.
