The Foundation is launching its first-ever month-long campaign, “Hacks for Healthy Back-to-School Habits,” in partnership with leading U.S. retailers and food industry partners.

As the signature event for produce in the culinary arts, The Foodservice Conference promises top-notch education, the right connections, and the best expo – with products and services targeted specifically to the foodservice industry.

IFPA has announced that Jessica Keller has joined the association and will serve as the Vice President of Global Industry Relations.

IFPA is saddened to share news of the recent passing of Duane Eaton, a long-time senior staff executive who led the Meetings and Tradeshows team at legacy organization Produce Marketing Association.

During the International Fresh Produce Association’s The Washington Conference, both Grimmway Farms and Senator Debbie Stabenow (D-MI) were recognized with the Produce Industry Advocate of the Year Award and the inaugural IFPA Fresh Impact Lifetime Achievement Award, respectively, for their ongoing leadership and support of fresh produce.

The Produce Traceability Initiative (PTI) has issued a call-to-action to bring together industry experts to join a working group to support Terminal Market Operators with compliance with Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA)204 Traceability Rule.

More than 1,000 top foodservice buyers attend The Foodservice Conference to find new products, menu ideas, and business solutions. They are operators (commercial and noncommercial, including educators, especially K-12), distributors, chefs and menu developers, travel/tourism, and more.

Hundreds from across the produce and floral supply chain convened this week in the nation’s capital, June 10-12, for the Washington Conference hosted by the International Fresh Produce Association.

The conference proved to be a dynamic space for conversation, interaction, proposals, learning, best practices, and business flows, which is the intent and mission of IFPA, to connect all parts off the supply chain to create a prosperous future for all.
