Miller to be honored at 2014 Reception Honoring Women in Produce

Teri Miller, produce category manager at Delhaize America, headquartered in Salisbury, North Carolina, will be the honoree and featured speaker at the United Fresh Produce Association’s annual Reception Honoring Women in Produce on June 12 at United Fresh 2014 in Chicago.

Held each year in conjunction with the United Fresh convention and expo, the Reception Honoring Women in Produce recognizes the contributions of all women working in the produce industry, and selects one individual to share their personal experience of service. The featured speaker is selected from nominations submitted by United Fresh members across the industry and reviewed by a committee of her peers, including honorees from the past 17 years.

“Teri is the personification of leadership and dedication in the produce industry,” said United Fresh President and CEO Tom Stenzel. “Teri’s hard work and principled leadership motivates her team to the highest levels of performance, both for the company and for each individual. She has repeatedly contributed her time to important initiatives, such as countering bioterrorism and improving traceability. Her commitment to food retailing and her distinguished leadership in produce serve as a model for anyone pursuing a career in this great industry.”

Tickets are required for the event, and are included in the United Fresh 2014 convention package or All Access Pass. For more information, visit United’s website.
