Make Connections That Matter
For more than a century, the California Grocers Association has brought together the state’s grocers to form a community of retailers and their suppliers. Large or small, our Association works to help your business thrive by establishing a better connection to your customers.
The CGA is the best entry point into California’s grocer commmunity. They have the industry information you want and connections to the retailers you need.

Join the Conversation
CGA serves as the waypoint for California’s grocery community. Our events assemble leaders from across the industry, creating a network through which our members can build business relationships and develop a better understanding of their customer’s challenges.
CGA opened doors and provided us the opportunity to network with all the CGA members who are our potential customers.
