In 1992, the Marketing Order was amended under Section 929.45 of the Act to allow the CMC to promote the sale and use of cranberries and cranberry products. Currently, CMC conducts generic promotions in the United States, Japan, Germany, and Mexico.  For more information on cranberry usage please visit www.uscranberries.com.
