WATSONVILLE, CA - Driscoll’s Berries has welcomed a new executive in the promotion of former Director of Commerce, Business Planning, and Quality Assurance Wyard Stomp. Having moved over from the company’s European operations to accept the Vice President of Sales and Marketing post in California, the newly-named executive is thrilled to begin this new chapter of his fresh produce career.

“I brought my family here because this is a very, very special company to work for,” he shared with me recently. “It isn't just a good company; it has the right intentions.”

Wyard joined the Driscoll’s team in 2012 when he made the transition from the dairy industry into fresh produce. Born and raised in The Netherlands, he became an integral part of the European side of the team as he moved up the ranks from Commercial & Supply Chain Director EMEA to his most recent Director position.

Now, having moved over to the company’s Stateside operations and relocating to its U.S. home in Watsonville, California, Wyard is charged with the company’s marketing and sales strategy, market development, product marketing, and global export.

He reports directly to Driscoll’s President of the Americas, Soren Bjorn, who is already working away at innovative ways to further push the company’s promise of delivering only the finest berries with an enhanced focus on reaching the consumer.

Congratulations, Wyard, on this new chapter for you and your family!
