Centra Foods at Expo West 2016 Fresh Ideas Organic Show

Written by Hannah Broaddus | March 16, 2016

This last Thursday, March 10th Expo West 2016 kicked off with the Fresh Ideas Organic show. This is a one-day-only show focused on organic products. It’s a hot spot before the main show floor opens for buyers to find new organic trends and organic purchasers to locate suppliers.

Centra Foods had a booth at this organic only show this year, featuring 7 of our key organic oils for foodservice and bulk supply.

  • Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • Organic Sunflower Oil, High Oleic
  • Organic Canola Oil
  • Organic Soybean Oil
  • Organic Safflower Oil
  • Organic Coconut Oil
  • Organic Virgin Coconut Oil

Buyers and tasters met and mingled at this short show, once again this mini-show is proving it’s value within the Expo West event.

If you didn’t get to join us, here’s a few photos of our team at the event.
