What makes a great citrus display? For one merchandiser, it's about an explosion of citrus with great stacking, color blocking and displaying the inside beauty with cut, wrapped fruit.

Our judges thought so too.

We hope the PMG Produce Artist Award Series winter 2023 contest's citrus category winner — Brian Dey, senior merchandiser at Four Seasons Produce, Ephrata, Pa. — will inspire you to create your own works of art and send us photos of your displays.

Regardless of your own store or customer's parameters and resources, all sorts of merchandising can be helpful for our industry to see.

And for our next contest, we want to see your produce displays. If not you, encourage your team, colleague or customer to show us what they got. The contest is for produce merchandisers, specialists and managers, and the photos must reflect the work of their current role.

WHAT DO I WIN?

You get to be the topic of discussion in the Winner Webinar, where the judges discuss why your display is awesome. Your display photos will be featured in stories online, in print and on social media, with your name and company getting all the credit.
