CPMA Convention and Trade Show Montreal 2019
April 2-4, 2019
This year’s CPMA’ Montreal Convention and Trade
Show was a great success. The Montréal’s Palais des congres center was
buzzing with great energy and excitement, the convention exhibition floor overflowing with
enormous quantities of fresh fruit and vegetables. A variety of food and
beverages were offered for tasting. It was a true colourful delight for the visitor’s
eyes and taste buds.
