No matter which part of the industry you’re in, these sessions offer education designed specifically for you!

Grower-Shipper Super SessionUnderstanding New Ways to Reach Today’s Produce Consumers

More than ever before, consumers have an array of information sources at their disposal to use in planning their fresh produce purchases. And fresh produce is now available from an increasingly diverse selection of retail formats that fit their busy lifestyles, including

online orders with curbside delivery, drugstores and more. This session will help you better understand today’s informed and engaged consumers and learn ways that fresh produce marketers can best connect and sell to them in a variety of innovative retail formats.

Fresh-Cut Processor Super SessionThe Expanding Fresh-Cut Business Opportunity with Schools and Alternative Retail Formats

As demand for health and convenience items becomes a standard, fresh-cut products are now a staple in grocery stores, restaurants and kitchens everywhere. But the wave isn’t stopping there — fresh-cut produce is becoming a mainstay in schools, convenience stores,

food trucks, stadiums, gas stations, and more. Learn more about this escalating trend and how to tap into this growing business opportunity.

Wholesaler-Distributor Super SessionThe Growing Role of Produce Wholesalers in Serving C-Stores and Micro Grocers

With consumers looking for fresh produce outside of traditional retail and foodservice channels, wholesalers and distributors have a unique opportunity to expand their customer base.

SHOW FLOOR LEARNING CENTERS

Grow your business and expand your mind!Show floor learning centers feature interactive discussions led by industry experts and thought leaders. These education sessions on the expo floor are the place for dynamic content where members of the fresh produce industry can share passion about the industry, sparking creativity and innovation!

PRODUCE MARKETINGRetail Merchandising Strategies From the Best Winners of the United Fresh Produce Manager Award know first-hand what moves products in their stores. Join this panel of our award-winning produce managers to hear creative merchandising strategies that engage consumers and ultimately sell more produce.

Attendees will learn about product mix, merchandising strategies, reducing shrink, and floral trends to meet today’s consumer interests.

Online Produce Sales: A Permanent Trend or Temporary Fad Amazon scored great press with the fun story of possibly using drones to fly packages to our doorsteps. But Amazon Fresh is no future pie-in-the-sky, and today represents a major new online produce delivery service in some areas. Meanwhile, bricks and mortar retailers are hosting their own online delivery, and a variety of order online/pick-up at the store options. What are the trends, and where do the experts see online produce sales ahead?

Shopper Health and Nutrition Attitudes The HealthFocus U.S. Trend Study is a comprehensive syndicated study on shopper health and nutrition attitudes and behaviors in the United States that has been conducted every two years since 1992. Learn about the trends over that time in shopper attitudes, and what you can expect from consumers looking ahead.

BUSINESS MANAGEMENTEvaluating Sustainability and Social Accountability in Produce Operations As retailers and foodservice buyers increasingly try to assess the sustainability and social accountability of their produce suppliers, how should they evaluate best practices? This session will review United’s Sustainability Guide and Self Assessment Tool, developed to help grower and customers throughout the supply chain better understand and communicate about what’s important in sustainability. We’ll also talk about social accountability, and what it really means to supply chain partners.

A Crisis Is Not the Time to Draft a Crisis Plan Have you ever looked at another company struggling through a recall and thought, “That can never happen to me?” Far too often, your own crisis is right around the corner. Don’t be caught off guard! Now’s the time to turn to United’s Recall Crisis Preparedness Team to learn the essential strategies to survive.

Biotechnology and GMOs: Impact on Fresh Produce Fruits and vegetables we consume today are the result of generations of plant breeding and technology. Yet, controversy surrounds the potential role of biotechnology in developing new varieties of fruits and vegetables. With very limited presence of biotechnology in fruits and vegetables today, this session will explore where such varieties might be on the drawing board to offer enhancements to improve health, nutrition, taste, drought resistance and other agricultural benefits. How can the industry address these consumer benefits, while balancing consumer confidence and transparency in understanding our produce supply?

Doing Business in the Canadian Produce Marketplace If you sell produce in Canada, you need to attend this session. Learn about major trends in the Canadian marketplace, how to ensure that your product is protected in commercial trade, and new regulations that you need to understand to be successful.

Managing in a Multi-Generational Workforce Your business likely includes a mix of Baby Boomers, Generation X, Generation Y and the new Millennials. These groups don’t just think, talk, and work differently — they have vastly different expectations of themselves, each other, and your company. This session shares best practices to overcome miscommunication, enable collaboration, and build a pleasant and productive workplace. Discover simple but effective strategies to “get everyone on the same page” — even employees who are 40 years apart!

NEW BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIESOpportunities to Drive Produce Sales to Schools Schools are a growth opportunity for produce. Many schools have doubled their produce purchases as they offer salad bars, healthier school lunches, and more fresh fruit and vegetable snacks. Learn how foodservice directors across the Midwest are using fresh fruits and vegetables to create healthier school food environments, what they need from produce suppliers, and how you can develop collaborative partnerships to achieve shared goals. This session is sponsored by United’s Let’s Move Salad Bars to Midwest Schools campaign.

Expanding Organic Sales Impact on Overall Produce Growth Does the promotion of organic agriculture contribute to or suppress overall produce sales? You may be surprised by the answer. We’ll explore facts about historic sales of both conventional and organic produce, innovation in the organic sector that has benefitted non-organic producers, and growth in overall fruit and vegetable consumption.

Can SNAP Incentive Programs Boost Food Stamp Purchases of Produce There are now 25 states with pilot programs testing incentives to boost purchase of fresh fruits and vegetables in the food stamp program, known as SNAP. With SNAP expenditures over $80 billion annually, retailers and produce suppliers alike are looking for ways to drive healthier eating and fresh produce choices. The 2014 Farm Bill provides $100 million in federal matching funds to expand and evaluate fruit and vegetable incentive programs. Learn how your company can get involved in this major new opportunity.

SUPPLY CHAIN LOGISTICSWhat’s New with PTI, Traceability and Warehouse Management Systems? When the Produce Traceability Initiative (PTI) was launched, steering committee members anticipated a fast-track system toward a whole-chain, electronic traceability. But that pace doesn’t match today’s reality. This session will examine the state of PTI adoption in the industry, as well how retail distribution centers and produce warehouses are managing traceability and other tracking needs today.

Transportation: The New Critical Control Point in Produce From FDA’s proposed new Sanitary Transportation Rule to state regulations such as the California Air Resources Board (CARB) requirements, shippers and receivers are having to comply with new demands in transportation, while simultaneously struggling to find cost-effective transportation at all. Combine burgeoning regulatory demands with increasing risks of cargo theft, and companies are more stressed than ever about sound transportation logistics. In this in-depth session, learn how to protect your shipments and minimize the cost impact of new regulations on your company.

New Developments in Fresh-Cut Equipment Design The growth of the fresh-cut convenience segment was enabled decades ago by innovative equipment design that helped ensure both safety and efficiency in operations. That innovation continues today, with new equipment design enhancing the opportunities for companies that slice, dice and prepare fresh fruits and vegetables for consumers. Learn from a panel of experts what’s new in equipment design.

FOOD SAFETYWhat’s New with the FSMA Produce Safety Rule? The Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) is set to a have a profound impact on the produce industry, from farm to retail. FDA’s proposed Produce Safety Rule will significantly affect every fruit and vegetable producer marketing produce in the U.S. In this session, we’ll review the current status of the Produce Safety Rule, and United’s efforts to help ensure that the final rule addresses true safety concerns without adding unnecessary costs or counter-productive burdens to producers.

What’s New with the FSMA Preventive Controls and Foreign Supplier Rules? FDA’s proposed Preventive Controls Rule will place new requirements for produce warehouses, storage facilities, distribution centers and off-farm facilities throughout our supply chain. And, companies that import produce into the United States will now face specific new requirements to assure that these fruits and vegetables have been grown in compliance with the Produce Safety Rule. In this session, we’ll review FDA’s proposed Preventive Controls and Foreign Supplier Verification Rules and how they will affect your business.

Listeria Guidance and Best Practices in Produce Facilities Following the devastating effects of a Listeria outbreak tied to a produce packing house, industry experts have come together to publish United’s new Guidance Document on Listeria and what you need to know about preventing contamination in your facility. This is a session every operations and facility manager cannot afford to miss.

Safe Handling Guidelines for Produce at Retail The need for safe produce handling extends far beyond the field or warehouse, including the retail marketplace where consumers shop. This session will review the new Best Practices for Retail Produce Handling prepared by the Food Marketing Institute, with support from United Fresh and retail and produce food safety experts. Learn what you need to do keep produce safe in the retail environment.

Tackling the Food Safety Challenge for Small, Local ProducersWith consumers looking for locally grown produce, small growers are increasing coming into the traditional fresh produce supply chain. Yet, food safety needs are not dependent on size, as bacteria don’t know or care what size farm they may be living on. How can small producers incorporate needed food safety practices in their operations, and how can wholesale, retail and foodservice buyers assure that they’re only handling produce from food safety compliant farms?

Annual Science Symposium – Produce Research You Need to See Come see the “best of the best” in cutting edge research affecting the fresh and fresh-cut industry, at this session presented in partnership with the S-294 coalition of university and government researchers. After the workshop, head over to our Research Poster Session to review the newest research reports from university and government scientists.
