IFCO is updating the industry on the success of its 85,000 square foot service center near Portland, OR, which opened earlier this year. The plant processes over a million RPC per month to support its customers in the Pacific Northwest. Due to increasing RPC demand, IFCO plans to add a second washing line in November 2012. Mark White, Director of Service Center Operations, states, “We are very proud of our newly opened service center and the jobs it has created in Portland. The plant now operates with a great team of more than 100 employees led by Phillip Dizon (dee-zon) and is already improving productivity for our growing roster of retail and supplier customers.”<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">EarthFresh and Sobeys Ontario have now launched the new Potatoes By Usage campaign using exclusive EarthFresh potatoes under the Green Giant Label.
