MARKETING MANAGER, VOLPI FOODS

How does the culture at your company/store promote change?

Our team approaches each situation with the intent to understand and improve. We continue to evolve our culture and find new ways to celebrate wins and share in our successes.

Where do you see the dairy, deli and bakery industry headed? What is the future of the category?

The future of fresh departments is bright. Consumers are getting more and more curious about where their foods come from, how they are made, and the ethics throughout the process. I believe the deli will undergo a transformation in the coming years, following adjacent category trends in fresh seafood and meat, toward more sustainable supply that better meets shopper demands.

How would you define a Champion of Change?

A Champion of Change is someone driven by the wild idea that tomorrow should be better than today. A person who understands the reality of the world we live in yet refuses to accept the status quo.

Favorite food: Tapas—the more, the merrier!
