NASHVILLE, TN The crowds were out at Southern Innovations 2022. People were seeing new products, they were hearing about new ideas, they were making new contacts, they were reconnecting with old friends and they were enjoying every minute.
As one participant put it, "It's a great opportunity to come and see what's new. I think every booth [has] something of a little different twist," whether it's a new flavor or new packaging. "That's why it's called innovation. And I think it's great."
ORLANDO, FL The produce industry gathered in force the first week in March at the Southeast Produce Council's Southern Exposure 2022 conference and trade show to celebrate "The Marvel of Produce" and reconnect in person with colleagues and friends. For many attendees, it was the first time they had seen one another in a couple of years, as the worst of the COVID-19 pandemic finally seems to be in the rearview mirror.
Bobby Creel of L&M Cos. Inc. has been one of the guiding lights at the Southeast Produce Council since its earliest days, offering advice and counsel to its leadership, beginning with the council's key founder and first executive director, Terry Vorhees.
This March, the council will recognize him for all that he has done by presenting him with its highest honor: the 2022 Terry Vorhees Lifetime Achievement Award.
