Ayco’s Mexico operations encompasses both greenhouse and open field production; products include greenhouse bell peppers, English cucumbers, Persian cucumbers, pole cucumbers, broccoli crowns, and asparagus, according to a press release.
“Daniel has the perfect background to run our team in Mexico,” said Avi Nir, CEO. “He brings a broad and diverse base of experience in both business and production areas. From putting together greenhouse projects to logistics to marketing, he has been involved in all facets of the industry. He is a team builder and a team player.”
Daniel has spent his entire career in production agriculture. Prior to joining Ayco, he served as COO of Indigo Growers SAPI de CV where he rehabilitated greenhouses as well as updated packing areas, production systems, and food safety programs. He also marketed grape tomatoes and bell peppers.
“It is my job to guide and qualify each grower operation to ensure we are growing safe, quality products,” Daniel commented. “This will lead us to achieve our goals as growers and as a distributor.”
