Ahsan Faheem has been promoted to vice president of specialty at Vision Produce Co.

“Ahsan has been a huge personality at Vision Produce Co. since he started with the company over 12 years ago,” Dan Lawton, president at Vision Produce Co., said in a news release. “We are thankful he made that decision to move over from accounting to sales when he did. I congratulate him on his achievements and this promotion to vice president.”

Faheem joined Vision Produce Co. in 2009, the release said. Though he thrived in the accounting department, he said he longed to be in a sales role. He was given the chance in 2012 and has grown his sales and category management exponentially, the release said.

“It’s been a wonderful 12 years at the company and I’m looking forward to the future,” he said in the release. “I am excited to experience growth in the new vice president role.”

Faheem’s expertise has been beneficial in growing the okra, melon, limes and mango programs from seasonal to a year-round mix of offshore and domestic growing deals, according to the release.
