The United Fresh Produce Association wants your help in forming education sessions at its 2020 convention and expo.

The association has established a website for industry members to submit ideas that will shape the content of the educational sessions at United Fresh 2020, June 16-19 in San Diego.

The association is looking for guidance on what pressing issues and solutions there are in the fresh produce supply chain, as well as insight on what’s going on at member companies.

“Is your company working in an innovative solution to some of our most pressing industry challenges?” an e-mail to members asks. “Has your brand executed on a creative and successful marketing initiative or product launch?

“Submit your content ideas for presentation and you may be selected to join us on stage next June!”

The Ideas will be accepted through Dec. 6 on the association’s websiteThe Ideas will be accepted through Dec. 6 on the association’s website.
