Foremost Fresh Direct announced the addition of Kyle Reeves as VP of Business Development to its team in Baytown, Texas. Foremost Fresh Direct (FFD) is a service provider of cold storage and import logistics services in the Houston region and globally sourced fresh produce supply and distribution. Reeves will lead FFD’s new division focused on developing category management programs with retail and foodservice clients and produce, sourced directly from a consortium of vetted growers from around the world.
“I am excited to join this growing team which has a dynamic vision for the future, a fantastic culture, strong values and a great reputation for integrity and quality, especially among the customers and growers it serves,” said Reeves.
Reeves brings more than 17 years of retail-centric fresh produce experience to the growing organization from his previous role as produce procurement manager for United Supermarkets.
The new division and addition of Reeves bring new depth to FFD’s team, further strengthening the company’s global reach, national distribution and unique position in the Houston region. “I look forward to serving our customers and growers, while further building upon FFD’s programs, as an integral part of the company family. I am excited for the opportunities on the horizon and our continued growth trajectory,” said Reeves.
“Following our growth and the opening of our new facility in 2020, launching this new division was the next strategic step,” said executive vice president Jacquie Ediger. “Kyle is the perfect person to take the lead on this. We are excited he is joining us, bringing a high caliber of leadership, knowledge and expertise to our growing organization. He is a great addition to our team and will be instrumental in taking our programs and company to the next level.”
