CALIFORNIA AVOCADO COMMISSION PARTNERS WITH TMA+PERITUS
Source: TMA+Peritus news release

Wisconsin-based TMA+Peritus (TMAP), one of the state's leading content marketing firms, has won a significant business assignment from the California Avocado Commission (CAC), the leading avocado trade association in the U.S.

The commission serves as the official information source for California avocados and the California avocado industry, and is dedicated to sharing information, promoting product and supporting growers and handlers who use, produce, sell and serve California avocados. TMAP was selected after a comprehensive review of agencies from the West and Midwest.

Finalists in the review presented to the commission in July, and the partnership was awarded to TMAP shortly thereafter.

Agency staff were in California in August for intensive brand immersion meetings spending time at the CAC headquarters, in avocado groves, and with avocado handlers, packers and shippers. During the month of September, TMAP conducted research and listening sessions in three different growing regions across California, gaining insights into the needs of the commission's 5,000 avocado growers.

In addition, TMAP is assisting the client with its grower strategic communications initiative, and will be designing and developing work for a new grower website set to launch in the spring of 2013.

April Aymami, Industry Affairs Manager for the CAC says, "Our partnership with TMAP emerged from a lengthy review process of many communications companies. We selected them because of their knowledge of agricultural growers and providers, technical expertise and track record of working with numerous clients that fit our precise needs."

Over the years, TMAP has been instrumental in developing content marketing, branding initiatives, and web and digital efforts for organizations and companies like the Wisconsin Potato & Vegetable Growers Association, the Ginseng Board of Wisconsin, American Indian Herbs, Dairyland State Academy, Alsum Farms & Produce, the Russet Potato Exchange, Native Wisconsin Herbal Cooperative and Bushman's Potatoes. Their experience in agriculture and grower communications was one of the deciding factors for the CAC.

TMA+Peritus managing principal Kathy Marks, said, "It's an honor for our agency to be selected. Because agricultural communications is one of our agency's core competencies, we had actually been following the California Avocado trade for many years. Obviously, we're incredibly excited about our new partnership, and look forward to working very closely with the avocado growers and the CAC in the months to come."
