Episode 32 - Women in Produce (Part 1)




Produce Talks show

Summary: This month, we’re turning the microphone over to Jane Proctor, Vice President of Policy & Issue Management at CPMA to take a look at how the produce workforce is changing.  With more women taking on senior roles in the industry and the increase of female participation in Passion for Produce both indicate a fundamental shift in the demographics of the industry.  We’ve gathered together a small group of women to reflect on their different experiences, and what the future of the industry looks like for young women entering today.  Please welcome to the podcast: ·         Angela Santiago, CEO & Co-Founder, The Little Potato Company Ltd. ·         Bernadette Hamel, Vice President, National Procurement, Produce and Dairy, Metro Richelieu Inc. ·         Beth Pattillo, Director of Marketing, Kings Produce Ltd. ·         Stephanie Lariviere, Sales Regulatory Manager, Erie James Ltd.
