Fruits, Nuts, and More

Adam works in the southeast region global food sourcing office. He is a senior sourcing manager. That means he works with farmers from Texas to Florida and all the way up to Pennsylvania to procure his categories. He is responsible for peaches, oranges, mushrooms, pecans, avocados, peanuts, grapefruit, and tangerines. So far, he's only visited one farm, but will do so about once a month. A few weeks ago he went to a peach farm and got to eat a peach right off the tree! (Thankfully he likes peaches... there aren't many more things on his category list that he can or will eat. He's allergic to peanuts!)



Do you have a question about what Adam does? Send me a comment and I'll twist his arm for an answer!

  1. Yes, I have a question or two...
    1. Is Adam involved in the buying of "Cuties" or the other similar bags of little oranges that go by similar names?

    2. How awesome is it that we get to see you guys this weekend?!?

  2. 1. Adam "sources some regional bags of oranges, but all cuties/mandarins come from the CA sourcing office."

    2. TOTALLY awesome! So excited! :)
