PHILADELPHIA, PA - The wholesale produce business John Vena, Inc has announced the hiring of James Collins as its new Packing Room Supervisor. In his role in this newly created position, Collins will oversee all Packing Room operations, ensuring that John Vena meets the needs of its trading partners and growing customer base.
“We are very happy to have James join our team. This part of our business is growing rapidly and he has the skills we need to properly guide our production team,” said John Vena, President. “James has a bachelor’s degree in Networking & Communications Management as well as experience in production processes. James has spent the majority of his career working in operations, which has allowed him to develop his skills in process technology and lean manufacturing."
Some of this growth has come in the Philadelphia Wholesale Produce Market, where John Vena has notably increased its presence. According to a press release, John Vena has recently needed to build new packing room units to meet the growing demands of its customers.

Congratulations on the new position James!
