CO2 GRO Inc (TSX-V:GROW, OTCQB:BLONF). and Mexico marketing and sales partner Rancho Nexo have announced that they have become a member of the Asociación Mexicana de Horticultura Protegida (AMHPAC) -- which is Mexico's largest protected agriculture association. 

In addition, CO2 GRO and its partner will be exhibiting at AMHPAC's ANNUAL CONGRESS in Los Cabos from September 1- 3. 

CO2 GRO added that Rancho Nexo is currently attending the GreenTech Americas Conference at the Querétaro Centro de Congresos in Mexico (August 24-26).

GreenTech Americas is the meeting place for all professionals involved in horticultural technology in the Mexico region and the rest of the Americas, as the exhibition focuses on the early stages of the horticultural production chain and the relevant problems that arise for producers. 

CO2 GRO said AMHPAC will be its second in-person conference since March 2020 following the relaxation of COVID-related travel restrictions.

AMHPAC is the trade organization for Mexico's greenhouse and protected ag growers, who collectively operate 54,150 hectares (about 6 billion square feet) of grow facilities. AMHPAC represents 380 Mexican vegetable growers, who export 90% of Mexico's vegetable produce -- the second-largest protected ag market in the world.

"Being a member of AMHPAC is an important show of commitment by CO2 GRO to the Mexican protected ag market,” said Rancho Nexo Principal Matt Grant in a statement.

“We have been working with our team in Mexico to develop a coherent strategy for penetrating the market. Part of this strategy is attending the AMHPAC CONGRESS, which also gives our team in Mexico the opportunity to meet with GROW team members in person. We are committed to building the CO2 Delivery Solutions brand and technology roll-out in Mexico, and these conferences are integral to us meeting with potential customers."

Aaron Archibald, vice president of sales & strategic alliances, at CO2 GRO added: "Working with our Mexican partner, Rancho Nexo, we look forward to accelerating the introduction of our CO2 Delivery Solutions technology. The Mexican protected ag market is a key focus of our sales and marketing initiatives going forward due to the size of the market, its proximity and close relations with Canada and the US, as well as the fact that the vast majority of facilities in Mexico cannot utilize CO2 with traditional application methods due to the hot climate."
