Huge horticulture show planned for 2017

AUSVEG and PMA Australia-New Zealand Limited (PMA-ANZ) have agreed to present a joint industry conference and trade show in 2017.

The event will be held at the Adelaide Convention Centre at a date to be confirmed, and will combine two of the industry’s biggest conventions.

“The union between AUSVEG and PMA-ANZ is certain to strengthen the future of horticulture and fresh produce in our region. We are excited to join AUSVEG in hosting this event in 2017 and making it a truly world-class event that brings together the full supply chain and the wide range of fruit, vegetable and floral producers,” said PMA-ANZ Chairman John Said.

AUSVEG and PMA-ANZ are also in discussions with other industry groups to co-host the event in an effort to further unite the horticulture industry.

AUSVEG is the industry body representing Australia’s 9000 vegetable and potato growers. PMA-ANZ is an affiliate of the Produce Marketing Association (PMA Global), the leading global fresh produce trade association serving member companies around the world.
