Episode 32 - Women in Produce (Part 1)

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.
