Consalo Family Farms — a fourth-generation, family-owned grower, packer, shipper, importer and distributor of fresh fruits and vegetables — has added Morgan DiMartino and Jose N. Garcete to its leadership team.

DiMartino returns to Consalo Family Farms as vice president of marketing. She began her career in logistics at the company, where for four years she served as logistics manager, helping build the transportation department from a one-person operation into a fully structured, high-performing team. Her efforts were instrumental in establishing the logistics processes that continue to support its growing supply chain today, the company says.

After her initial tenure at Consalo, DiMartino joined Effy Jewelry in New York City, managing high-value global shipments across the brand’s luxury cruise retail division. Her experience overseeing armored transport for fine jewelry and coordinating logistics for a constantly moving retail network strengthened her ability to lead under pressure, an asset she now brings back to the fast-paced world of produce, the company says.

In her new role as vice president of marketing, DiMartino will blend her operational expertise with her creative vision and deep understanding of the Consalo brand.

“There’s something very special in the works that we’re eager to share soon,” DiMartino says. “Consalo Family Farms has always been about innovation and relationships, and I’m thrilled to contribute to that legacy once again.”

Garcete, who has been appointed logistics manager, previously served as import and operations manager at ICER Brands in New York City, overseeing large-scale import programs for licensed fashion brands including the NFL and NBA. He managed international supply chains from manufacturing to retail delivery, with a strong focus on compliance, timing and efficiency.

At Consalo Family Farms, Garcete will oversee and manage the logistics operations. His background in international freight and process optimization will play a key role in driving continued operational excellence, the company says.

“Jose brings a fresh perspective and a data-driven mindset to our logistics operations,” says Skip Consalo, owner and CEO of Consalo Family Farms. “His large-scale importing experience and precision in execution align perfectly with our mission to deliver quality, consistency and service at every level.”
