Here’s our first report from the IFMA 17 Congress. Good job newsroom!

From farmers markets to super markets, IFMA 17 delegates had the opportunity to spend Sunday, July 19 touring the Meijer’s Super Store. Delegates arrived at the Bone Student Center Sunday to register for this week’s events. A shuttle, provided by Peoria Charter Coach, took them from the ISU Campus to Meijer.

While at Meijer, delegates had the opportunity to purchase items forgotten or lost on their trip to Bloomington. Others were able to experience an “indoor” farmers market as they shopped in Meijer’s fresh produce section.

This is just one of the many “American experiences” that delegates from over 26 countries will experience this week at IFMA 17.

Since IFMA’s start in 1971, Bloomington, Ill., is only the second U.S. City to host the Congress.
