Nominations now open for Women in Produce Honoree

Held each year in conjunction with the United Fresh convention, the Reception Honoring Women in Produce recognizes the contributions of all women working in the produce industry, and selects one individual to share their personal experience of service. This year marks the 20th anniversary of this special event.

The honoree is selected from nominations submitted by United Fresh members across the industry. Nominations are evaluated based on the candidate’s involvement in the industry, contributions to the industry and inspiration for others working in the industry.

Nominations for the 2017 honoree are now being accepted until April 28. Tickets for the Reception Honoring Women in Produce are required, and are included in the United Fresh 2017 All Access Package. To register for the event, visit www.unitedfreshshow.org.
