Mastronardi Produce welcomes U.S. Secretary of Agriculture to their Coldwater, Michigan Greenhouse
“We are honored to have Secretary Perdue at our Michigan facility,” said CEO Paul Mastronardi. “Being able to see our growing methods and technologies, our strict food safety policies, and more importantly, the socio-economic impact our company has in the agriculture sector is incredibly important to us. We are humbled to have such an influential leader include Mastronardi Produce in his tour.”
Concluding the greenhouse tour, Secretary Perdue joined Mastronardi Produce in a discussion to answer questions, hear ideas and provide insight into issues addressed by the agricultural community such as economic development, food security, and food safety.
“Being able to meet with Paul, an industry leader who launched the produce industry’s first 100% traceability program, was a wonderful opportunity for me and a great addition to our tour,” said Perdue. “I got to taste a lot of their tomatoes and peppers and they have great product.”
