Members of Associated Food Stores (AFS) turned grape displays into national recognition and cash in the recent contest sponsored by Robinson Fresh. More than $5,000 in cash prizes were given to the winners.
“So many great displays were entered leading to unbelievable volume movement and incredible store-level creativity and execution,” said Kim Smith, director of sales, Robinson Fresh West Region. “Please congratulate all the winners. It was nice to see so many different participants this year!”
The contest ran during this year’s Father’s Day weekend with more than 54,0000 cases of grapes sold during the month of the contest.
