Attached is the updated agenda for a farmer food safety program. The paragraph below is an excerpt from the flyer. If you know farmers looking into selling to wholesalers like Sysco and what food safety requirements apply to them, please let them know about this meeting.
Consumers value fresh and local, but above all, they want to trust in the quality and safety of the products they buy. That's why the Produce Marketing Association (PMA), the trade organization supporting the fresh produce supply chain, PrimusLabs.com and Sysco have joined forces to develop and deliver a series of one-day programs uniquely-tailored to help local growers explore the challenges of implementing a company food safety plan, meet the requirements of restaurant and retail outlets, and above all, protect your business and bottom line.
Through hands-on demonstrations and discussions with experts, you will leave with the tools you need to build your own customized food safety program, based upon your specific business model.
Registration fee of $75 includes the education program and a networking lunch
