Reaching out to touch someone was a familiar sight at the finish line of the gruelling cross-country race meet held Oct. 23 at Hullett Central School Lon1esborough. Here Blyth students welcome a runner from their school as she nears the finish line. Blyth and Walton schools competed against schools from Clinton, Vanastra, Seaforth and Brucefield. Export offices set up to help sell produce Ontario's new team of ten export officers is now in place as part of a plan to double food and agricultur- al exports to the U.S. Five Ontario Ministry of Agri- culture and Food marketing spe- cialists took up their posts in offices in Chicago, New York, Los Ange- les, Dallas and Philadelphia re- cently. They will help to develop new export markets for Ontario agricultural and food products within their assigned territories. Supporting the U.S. marketing team are new commodity experts working from the ministry's Tor- onto offices. They provide routing and sourcing for the U.S. staff, handle incoming trade missions, develop buyer contacts and work with Ontario companies to develop export thrusts in specific geogra- phic regions. The commodity experts were appointed last spring. "The fall will be a busy season for our new staff. The ministry will be leading companies to several trade shows," said Grahame Richards, director of the ministry's market development branch. Richards said the ministry is hoping to take advantage of Ontario's proximity and access to the American market to double exports of food and agricultural products to the U.S. in the next five years. Although 60 per cent of Ont- ario's proximity and access to the American market to double ex- ports of food and agricultural products to the U.S. in the next five years. Although 60 per cent of Ont- ario's $1.8 billion in food and agricultural exports already go the U.S., ministry analysis indicates there is still significant room for growth south of the border. The ministry has been able to recruit people with strong market- ing and export experience for the new positions, Richards said. "I am confident the new staff will be able to provide Ontario exporters with the type of advice and assistance thatwill make a real difference," he said. Jim Hetler, who has held a variety of responsible positions within the agriculture and food marketing field in the U.S., is working out of the Los Angeles office. Carol Klein, who worked as a commercial officer with the Canadian Consulate in Philadel- phia for nine years, is the ministry's representative in the Philadelphia office. In the Dallas office, Ronnie Burks is the mini- stry's representative. He has experience in sales and market development in the state of Texas. Kathy Seebert, who was director of Marketing with Mid America Commodity Exchange in Chicago, is working out of the ministry's Chicago office. The New York office is manned by Ken Mueller, who was presi- dent of the AgriBusiness Council Inc. in New York and has a number of years of experience in the agri-business investment area. The commodity specialists at OMAF head office have been assigned a specific area of respon- sibility. Laura Vasarais, who has 17 years of import and export experi- ence, is responsible for dairy grains, oil seed products and animal products. Dermod Mark, with nine years in private sector sales and promotion, is responsi- ble for animal feeds, livestock, poultry, and related breeding technologies. With 21 years in international trade with the Ministry of Agricul- ture and Food, Bill Richardson has responsibility for grocery pro- ducts, bakery and grain products as well as confectionary items. Fresh fruits and vegetables, flori- culture, nursery stock and seeds are being handled by Tony Stamp- fer, who brings more than 20 years of business and promotion experi- ence to the ministry.
