The Magnolia Citrus Association announced Mike Cranmer will join the organization on July 1 as Assistant Manager. Cranmer comes to the packinghouse as part of a phased transition before he will assume the role of Manager/CEO of Magnolia Citrus for the 2018 season, when current Manager/CEO Frank Arcure will retire, effective Sept. 1, 2017.
Cranmer’s career in the citrus industry began in 1995 as a sales representative for the California Citrus Exchange in Lindsay, where he was responsible for promoting sales for seven Sunkist packinghouses. Since then, he has worked in sales and operations for Paramount Citrus Association, Baird-Neece Packing Corporation, Sierra Citrus and most recently at Visalia Citrus Packing Group’s Woodlake facility.
“With 19 years of experience in the Sunkist system handling sales and packing operations for several packinghouses, Mike Cranmer will be a great leader for Magnolia Citrus,” said current Manager/CEO Frank Arcure. “I feel fortunate to be passing along my responsibilities to such a capable, results-driven sales and operations professional.”
