“We are excited to welcome Jerry to the Naturipe team and equally pleased to promote from within and see Kasey take on this new role.” said Dwight Ferguson, CEO of Naturipe Farms. Naturipe has seen consistent double digit growth, driven in part by the demand for its proprietary varieties, expanded production base and the growing consumer demand for premium quality, great tasting berries. “Jerry and Kasey are both experienced and talented berry experts who are respected and trusted throughout our industry”.
Prior to joining Naturipe Farms, Moran was the Bush Berry Category Manager at California Giant Berry Farms for seven years and previously held several positions at Driscoll Strawberry Associates over a five-year period.
