Since 1998, GFVGA’s Marketing Program has given members the opportunity to increase their market reach. The program includes the following:
- Hosting produce buyer tours on farm visits to Georgia producers. The buyers get a first hand view of the high quality and excellent taste of Georgia’s fresh produce.
- Our Marketing Sponsor Program is mailed out in the Spring and Fall to over 2000 actual retail distributors and grocery chain buyers nationwide.
- GFVGA attends and hosts the PMA GEORGIA PAVILION in conjunction with other Georgia commodities and a number of growers to promote fresh Georgia produce.
- Our Marketing sponsors receive access to the Georgia Pavilion at the PMA Trade Show and their farm, commodity and contact information is distributed to all buyers and attendees from across the world that visit the Georgia Pavilion.
- GFVGA assists in publishing a Georgia insert for PRODUCE BUSINESS magazine that is distributed to over 20,000 buyers nationwide and 10,000 attendees at PMA.
NOW is the time FOR YOU to sign up to participate in this profitable program!
