For 30 years Vanguard has continued to rethink and reinvent how produce journeys from field to table. What started with a goal to elevate the produce business back in 1991 has grown to becoming the most trusted name in reliable, quality–assured and year–round delivery of produce globally.
And while this past year marked a milestone birthday for the company, the pandemic, and prioritizing the challenges associated with it meant any opportunity to bring our global teams together to celebrate were temporary put on hold.
As the world starts to see the light at the end of the COVID-19 tunnel, and we can again bring our teams back together in our global offices, we are hopeful a proper celebration will be had in 2021!
But for now, we are taking a quick trip down memory lane and reflecting on some of our key milestones through the past 3 decades produce, people, and promise.
