Registration is now open for SiteOne Landscape Supply's 25th annual Women in the Green Industry Conference (WIGI) Oct. 6-9, 2022, at The Westin Riverwalk in San Antonio, Texas.
WIGI has been dedicated to the development of professional women in the green industry including business owners, office managers, purchasing agents, installers, field workers or anyone in the green industry.
“The industry is navigating many more challenges than years previous,” says Christina Moore, Sr. Events Manager at SiteOne. “Finding qualified labor for work, navigating rising prices, allocating products to complete jobs—it’s time we pause to help each other flourish despite these dynamic times. It’s important we celebrate and encourage the role women play in the future of the green industry.”
