“Farming is all I know.”
Manuel oversees all raspberry production in the Oxnard district for Reiter Affiliated Companies. He works closely with all of Driscoll’s independent farmers and monitors the introduction of new proprietary varieties. He has held this position since 2000, but he has been farming for twenty years.
He and his wife Raquel have a son Luis and a daughter Christina. On Sundays, he rides his Harley Davidson motorcycle. He also enjoys taking business trips with Reiter Affiliated Companies to destinations such as Puerto Vallarta, Baja and Central Mexico. The learning and information sharing that take place at these outings is invaluable.
Manuel loves working for Driscoll's and bringing only the finest berries to consumers all over the world.
