“I’m excited to join the Zespri team and take on this new role as Zespri expands throughout the Americas. We are building our team to become a 12-month brand in this region so that consumers can enjoy SunGold Kiwifruit all year,” said Donaldson.
Prior to joining Zespri, Donaldson has spent over 20 years in operations management in a variety of food and beverage categories ranging from carbonated beverages to sushi. He most recently worked in speciality produce at Frieda’s. Donaldson has vast experience in multi-site management across multiple states along with large work force management.
