Bureau of Markets

The Bureau of Markets promotes the viability and sustainability of Massachusetts’ food and agricultural businesses through marketing and educational activities.

We encourage consumers to buy Massachusetts food and agricultural products, assist farmers in wholesale marketing, direct marketing (such as farmers' markets and roadside stands), foster economic development for the farm community and specialty food industry, and assist in foreign export programs.

The Bureau administers the Federal-State Market Improvement Program (FSMIP), a USDA grant program fostering innovation in agriculture marketing. The Bureau also produces a number of consumer and grower publications.
