The Fresh Produce & Floral Council’s Apprentice Program is a member benefit providing education, experience and networking to anyone looking to build leadership skills, develop contacts and learn more about the produce and floral supply chain.

Applications for the program will be accepted starting Jan. 18.

The FPFC Apprentice Program is not limited to sales and marketing professionals, but is open to any employee of a member company, regardless of age, experience or function within the company.

In 2020, the FPFC Apprentice Program successfully switched to a virtual platform. The participants were able to connect with each other, build relationships and take tours all in the comfort of their home offices! We hope to make a return to in-person events when it is safe to do so in 2021.
