Tanimura & Antle announces that Sheridan Silver has joined their innovative leadership team as Vice President of Supply Chain. Silver joins the grower-shipper with over 20 years of procurement, purchasing, and supply chain experience with a variety of packaged goods and food companies. In his new role as Vice President of Supply Chain, Silver will utilize his expertise to bring additional insight and strategy to oversee the company’s procurement department as well as facilities.
“We’re all thrilled to welcome Sheridan to our upper management team at Tanimura & Antle and to the company as a whole,” said Nick Sgheiza, Chief Operations Officer (COO).
“As our industry becomes more and more competitive, continually seeking efficiencies, cost savings, and innovative solutions is a non-negotiable for Tanimura & Antle to remain the leading industry grower-shipper. Sheridan’s experience paired with our already talented team of employee-owners will be a game changer, ensuring success in our supply chain, 365 days a year.”
Silver most recently served as Director of Direct Materials for Florida Crystals (ASR Group), a packaged sugar company, where he was responsible for strategically procuring multimillion-dollar spending annually in packaging, ingredients, pallets, and more for both companies as a shared resource. Prior to Florida Crystals, Silver spent over a decade at Mann Packing, now a division of Del Monte Produce. Starting as a Purchasing Manager, he was later promoted to Director of Supply Chain and then General Manager, where he oversaw the overall fresh-cut vegetable production and shipping facility in Salinas, CA.
“I’m very excited to return to the produce industry and join a great employee and family-owned business like Tanimura & Antle. The company has a long history of providing an excellent supply chain from harvest all the way to the customer,” said Silver. “The goal is to build on this tradition and to continue to provide an overall supply chain customers can count on year-round.”
