PMA challenges industry to grow a healthier world
Produce Marketing Association (PMA) will hold an executive workshop April 19 to mobilize the industry in support of the UN International Year of Fruits and Vegetables (IYFV). The workshop will feature leaders from government and non-profit networks who will share tangible outputs from the programs they lead to drive access, availability and consumption of fresh produce. Attendees will also be the first to hear about the PMA Growing a Healthier World Challenge, which will be announced by PMA CEO, Cathy Burns.
PMA first announced its support of the UN’s International Year of Fruits and Vegetables at the virtual Fresh Summit in the Fall of 2020. The initiative recognizes the role the agriculture sector plays in providing healthy, affordable food for a growing world.
