FRESNO – Mark your calendars:  next year, the Fresno Food Expo will be held on July 24 rather than in March, as it has been in previous years.

The date change was made to accommodate the 2,500-plus fresh produce growers and packers in the San Joaquin Valley that accounted for nearly $106 billion in economic impact in 2011.   The announcement was made during a press conference at Johanson Transportation Service Wednesday morning.  See the video below to view the press conference in its entirety.
