VANCOUVER, B.C. — While The Oppenheimer Group may be one of the best known names in the international produce community, day-to-day the industry has long called the full-service produce marketing and distribution company something else altogether.

VANCOUVER, B.C. — Oppenheimer’s East Coast senior sales representative Brett Libke has been promoted to the role of East Coast director of sales.
“Brett has proven to be a very strategic thinker, is well regarded throughout the industry, and possesses invaluable leadership qualities,” said David Smith, Oppenheimer’s senior vice president, North American sales and categories. “His experience and knowledge of the business will complement the sales efforts made by many of Oppenheimer’s veteran sales people on the East Coast.”
Oceanside, Calif.. – Oceanside Pole tomatoes are back, and better than ever.
