The Canadian Produce Marketing Association (CPMA) is seeking industry input on the future of Canada’s Destination Inspection Service (DIS).

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA), in collaboration with industry representatives through the Destination Inspection Service Modernization Working Group, is exploring options to modernize DIS rather than eliminate it. The service has long been an important tool for managing commercial disputes, supporting confidence in produce transactions and facilitating fair business practices throughout the supply chain. By completing a short survey, you can review several potential service models and share your feedback. All responses will remain confidential and will be shared with CFIA in aggregate form to help inform CPMA’s position as modernization discussions continue.

Your feedback will help ensure future DIS models support the needs of the fresh produce industry and preserve the value that members rely on. Please complete the survey by Thursday, Aug. 13, 2026.
