It’s a fantastic platform for us to showcase our products, programs, and commitment to delivering top-quality sweet onions to consumers,” shares John Shuman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We’ve been a proud member of the SEPC community for years, and Southern Innovations is a key event for us to connect with industry leaders and foster valuable relationships.”

Giving back is another integral pillar for Shuman Farms, which is why the company will be volunteering at the Second Harvest Food Bank of Metrolina in Charlotte ahead of the show on Wednesday.

For Shuman Farms, this trade show is an industry experience packed with vital growth opportunities.

“We’re looking forward to the educational sessions the Council has put together this year.
