An international food aid event in Washington, D.C., gave representatives of U.S. dry bean organizations a chance to showcase their product to U.S.government agencies and non-government agencies across the globe that buy their commodity.

Five members of the U.S. Dry Bean Council set up a display table and attended meetings at the International Food Aid Showcase, held at the U.S. Agriculture Department on May 2, 2024, in Washington D.C.: Dave Weber, U.S. Dry Bean Council food aid committee chair and division manager at New Alliance in Alliance, Nebraska; Thoric Cederstrom, U.S. Dry Bean Council food aid committee staff lead; Pat King, owner of PW Montgomery LLC in Fargo, North Dakota; Joe Cramer, Michigan Bean Commission executive director; and Mitch Coulter, Northarvest Bean Growers Association executive director.

The International Food Aid Showcase was modeled after an event that had been held in Kansas City that was discontinued several years ago. The May showcase, like that event, was designed to bring together representatives of commodities that are used for food around the world with the buyers of them.

Besides dry beans, representatives of a wide variety of organizations that included commodities from wheat to Alaskan seafood attended the International Food Aid Showcase.
