“The people and innovation in the industry have kept me here for over 35 years and I am excited to be joining the DelFrescoPure team [with] their passion for producing premium quality produce,” Jones said in the release.

DelFrescoPure says the addition of Jones will help align the team with its sales and retail partnership expansion.
