  • Where are you currently sourcing citrus? How does your supply compare with a year ago?
  • What are the highlights of your citrus marketing plan over the next three months?
  • What is the biggest change in the citrus market compared with a year ago?
  • What are the biggest retail packaging trends that you see for citrus?
  • How do you recommend that retailers promote your citrus items?
  • How many cartons of citrus do you expect to market this season?
  • What percent of your citrus supply is organic? Will your organic supply increase in the next five years?
  • How have increased online grocery citrus sales changed the way you market?
  • What is the top sustainability initiative at your organization? 
  • What effect has tight trucks/ocean carrier capacity had on citrus marketing this season?
