(April 2-3, 2019)

A team of five AGB students, Nicole Tedjasaputra, Britney Moore, Devyn Paulo, Sophie Lieber, and Danielle Diele, attended Grocers Day, an annual event hosted by the California Grocers Association (CGA). The attending students were each paired with CGA retail members and had the chance to observe interactions and policy-related discussions with elected state legislators. Our students also had the chance to showcase and discuss the research they have been conducting on the economic impact of the California Grocery Industry, which is funded by the CGA Educational Foundation. Finally one of our students, Nicole Tedjasaputra, addressed the CGA Board of Directors at their annual meeting on the value of CGA scholarships for college students.
