The Center Plate Partner Recognition Program (“Center Plate”) was created to acknowledge CPMA members who go above and beyond to support Canada’s only national fruit and vegetable association. CPMA’s programs and initiatives are essential to our sector’s success, with the goal of increasing the overall consumption of fresh produce to improve our population’s health, while ensuring a strong and vibrant industry. To support these initiatives, CPMA offers a wide range of sponsorship opportunities that give members the opportunity to increase their profile within the sector while boosting their business.
Thank you to our Center Plate Partners. Your sponsorship and support enables many of the activities of CPMA. To learn more, please contact Heather Urban at [email protected] or 613-226-4187.

Sponsor Benefits:
All Center Plate partners receive prominent visibility on CPMA’s websites, special recognition at the annual CPMA Convention & Trade Show, and an exclusive invitation to the Directors and New Members’ Reception.
