DRC reviews progress at 2026 AGM

The Fruit and Vegetable Dispute Resolution Corporation (DRC) convened a successful Annual General Meeting (AGM) in Victoria, British Columbia, on Thursday, May 28, 2026. The AGM brought together DRC members, senior staff, and Board of Directors both in person and virtually to review achievements, discuss ongoing initiatives, and outline the organization’s strategic direction for the coming year. Bret Erickson, Little Bear Produce Ltd., Edinburg, Texas, continues to chair the board. 

With 12 Directors on the Board, each serving a three-year term, Pierre Dolbec and Bruce Summers were re-elected as Directors. The Board will continue its efforts to enhance the fruit and vegetable industry by ensuring fair and ethical trade for all DRC members.

“We are proud to welcome our returning Directors,” said Luc Mougeot, DRC’s president and CEO. “Their leadership helps guide the DRC as we continue to support our members. Our primary goal is clear: to establish the DRC as the global trade standards body and dispute resolution mechanism for the fresh fruit and vegetable industry.”
