Well, the time has now come once again for Gerger to find their new spokesperson or 'spokesbaby' in this case. Gerber recently announced that their annual 'Photo Search Contest' has officially begun and that the winner of the contest will become the company's new face for 2023.

Instructions also state that parents must submit a picture of themselves as well from when they were kids, specifically from when they were born and up to 10 years old. That's it, it's really that easy. Of course, the application also requires general information but that goes without saying. All other information regarding the contest may be found here.

The contest runs through June 10th and for the lucky winner, they will assume the role of 'Chief Growing Officer' and will then be featured in a number of the company's social media and branding campaigns. Winner also will receive a cash prize as well as many other prizes from Gerber.
