What makes this event unique, is that it is the only event in southern Africa that brings together the entire fresh produce supply chain under one roof.
In addition to an exciting conference programme, trade show and new connections roundtable, the event has a huge focus on industry talent.
“Founded in 2005, the Center for Growing Talent (CGT) is a charitable organisation with the mission to provide industry-specific solutions to attract, develop and retain talent for the produce and floral industries,” explains Alicia Calhoun, CGT vice president - Talent portfolio.
This year, the CGT will be hosting three programmes at Fresh Connections: Southern Africa.
“To attract fresh talent to our industry takes committed volunteers, who create awareness about career opportunities and spread their passion for fresh produce and floral to others.
“We are grateful for sponsors such as Absa Bank, Bayer and the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in South Africa who support the CGT programmes at Fresh Connections: Southern Africa,” says Calhoun.
