WENATCHEE, WA - It’s the peak of the Northwest cherry season, and CMI is hitting its stride with a new cherry line designed to increase productivity and address the growing program for the Wenatchee, Washington-based company.
Bryon McDougall, Director of Operations for McDougall & Sons, Inc., took the time to talk with us about the company’s latest integration of this packing technology.
Bryon tells me that the company is now able to produce better packaging than if it were relying on hand-sorting, explaining that the company is now projecting 14 tons of cherries an hour as opposed to last year’s 10 tons.
To see this latest sorting and packing approach in action, and hear my entire interview with Bryon, watch the 90-second video above.
