Registration is open for the United Fresh Produce Association 2020 Convention & Expo.

The association’s convention committee celebrated the opening of registration for the event in San Diego, Calif., the host city for the June 16-19 show.

“We’re excited to announce plans for a unique business, education and networking event this year,” committee co-chair Paul Kneeland, executive director of fresh foods for Gelson’s Markets, said in the release. “It’s great to be back in southern California where we’ll make waves over four days of enhanced networking, B2B partner meetings, education and a whole lot of energy packed into the San Diego’s historic Gaslamp Quarter.”

The United Fresh show will bring back the B2B Partner X-Change for retail and foodservice, the Late Night Party at the House of Blues, and EATS food court on the expo floor, committee co-chair Abby Prior, vice president of marketing for BrightFarms, said in the release.

The United Fresh convention begins with a party on the U.S.S. Midway, according to the release.

The show agenda and online registration is available on the United Fresh website.
