Gary York has been promoted to director of sourcing, Europe, at CH Robinson Worldwide, due to the increase in demand the company is experiencing for a global supply of fresh fruits and vegetables.
York will now take responsibility of the overall team and resources that hope to ease development and expansion of sourcing in Europe, as well as look at other regions in the world to further develop alternative supply programmes.
“Gary’s long-term track record of success and overall knowledge of the global produce supply chain will deliver value to our customers and suppliers, while at the same time, allow us to develop new business and expand our European Sourcing team,” said Jim Lemke, senior vice president at CH Robinson.
