Thank you for helping us make the 86th Annual Convention & Trade Show in Montréal the resounding success that it was!  We are extremely pleased that the 2011 event attracted over 3200 participants and that the trade show floor was 26% larger than last year.

The event combined business and networking opportunities, outstanding keynote speakers in Chantal Petitclerc and Jeremy Gutsche, business sessions, numerous awards presentations, great food, entertainment and good times. 

Thank you to everyone involved in the organization of the Annual Convention & Trade Show, to the organizing committee, the volunteers, our sponsors and exhibitors, and to those of you who participated and attended the various events that were developed for you.
The Annual Convention and Trade Show would not have been the same without you.

We are also extremely pleased to report that after the trade show closed its doors on Friday afternoon, over 33,000 lbs of produce was donated by CPMA exhibitors to Moisson Montréal, the local food bank.

Our next event will take place in Calgary, Alberta from April 11-13, 2012.  We already look forward to seeing you there but in the meantime, we invite you to have a look at the highlights from Fruits and Vegetables, A Healthy Choice.
