About AgriMissouri |
|
Overview
AgriMissouri’s™ objective is to promote products grown,
raised or processed in Missouri. “We’ve long known that
consumers want the local, high-quality, trusted brands that Missouri
agriculture has to offer,” said Tony Stafford, director
of the department’s Agriculture Business Development Division,
which administers the AgriMissouri™ Program. “Unfortunately,
small producers and companies don’t always have the resources
to reach the right consumers. That’s where AgriMissouri™
comes in.”
AgriMissouri™ represents food and non-food processed products
including fresh fruits, vegetables, horticultural products and agritourism
destinations throughout the state. The program identifies Missouri
brands and destinations through marketing and communications assistance
such as advertising, promotions and educational seminars.
To strengthen the AgriMissouri™ brand and services to members,
the AgriMissouri™ staff works hard to implement an aggressive
marketing plan that focuses on retail, wholesale, foodservice and
direct-to-consumer market channels. We also provide training to
our members by offering educational opportunities and access to
trade shows.
