Plan to have the following information available prior to starting your application:

• Initial thoughts on how you would use the New Mexico True Certified Logo if approved (e.g., packaging, website, marketing materials, merchandising, point-of-sale, signage, press release or other public relations outreach/materials, trade show display, storefront, etc.). Refer to the Resources page for examples and mockups. The Certified Logo is not available for use prior to having a licensing agreement in place. All use of the Certified Logo must be approved in advance.

• If you are applying for “100% Grown in New Mexico” certification: Source-verified third-party documentation from NMDA or qualified company such as Where Food Comes From, Inc. Must be in .pdf format for upload.

The New Mexico Tourism Department will review completed applications and supporting evidence. A representative will be in touch shortly thereafter.
