Market Development is a core function of POGA. Canadian oat exports have been growing significantly higher in Mexico and Japan due to POGA’s outreach to importers and social media campaigns directed at consumers. Additional success in Mexico has been through an annual recipe contest, as well as outreach aligning with World Diabetes Day.
In 2020, POGA also launched a social media campaign targeted at Canadian consumers which aimed at promoting the healthy aspect of introducing oats into everyday foods.
