On March 4, 2025, the ASG team, valued vendor partners, and customers gathered for an unforgettable Spring Buying Show at Citi Field. The event was a true celebration of partnerships, opportunities, and shared success—and we couldn’t have done it without you!

The Mardi Gras-themed atmosphere set the tone for a day filled with lively connections, productive business discussions, and a sense of excitement and collaboration. We are so grateful for everyone’s presence and engagement, which made the event a tremendous success.

We also want to extend a heartfelt thank you to our generous vendors who donated food samples and to our dedicated ASG employees who worked with City Harvest to rescue and redistribute over 13,000 pounds of food and beverages to New Yorkers in need. This collective effort is a perfect reflection of the spirit of community and generosity that defines our partnerships.
