The organisation has expanded its response to customer transportation needs by creating a dedicated transportation division. A new central toll-free phone number, 877-603-7848, will service all packing sites, LTL transportation, and cross-docking needs.
The addition of Jill Switzer to the team at FirstFruits Marketing brings a new level of service to the company’s transportation offerings. Switzer comes with 18 years of logistics experience, having worked for Advanced Transportation Services since the early 1990’s. She will be dedicated full-time to logistics support for the company.
"We re very pleased to be able to expand our transportation service capabilities to better service our customers," remarked Keith Mathews, CEO of FirstFruits Marketing of Washington. "Jill has a great depth of experience in transportation logistics and will be critical to bringing these services to life with our customers."
Switzer grew up on an apple ranch in Tieton, Wash. farmed by her father who was also an elementary school principal. Both sets of her grandparents were apple, hop and cattle farmers in the Cowiche and Tieton, Washington areas. She has been married to Joe Switzer for 22 years and they have one son, Jake who is 16.
FirstFruits Marketing is a collaborative apple marketing company owned by growers. These growers share a commitment to producing high quality fruit while balancing the demands of purpose, people, planet and profit so that a portion of profits can be donated to non-profit missions supporting the underserved.
