Brian Gomez reposted thisBrian Gomez reposted thisGreenFruit Bell Peppers are here🫑🤩 Our GreenFruit team explains why we chose Bell Peppers as our new commodity! We've succeeded in growing and supplying the perfect avocado, so it's only right to add bell peppers to the family. Just last year, the U.S approved bell peppers to be imported from Colombia. We're excited to be a part of that success and incorporate our new bell peppers into the GreenFruit family! #greenfruitavocados #theperfectavocado #eatmoreavos #avocado #colombia #mexico #jalisco #michoacan #socal #organic #biodynamic #sustainability #harvesting #produce #fields #farmlife #farmtotable #orchards #orchardtotable #agriculture #fruit #vegetables #grocery #freshfood #healthy #eatclean

Brian Gomez liked thisBrian Gomez liked thisI asked my mom & dad for advice recently from raising me and my brother... This is what they told me, maybe you’ll find it useful too: 1. Your kids are not your friends. They’re yours to safeguard and support, but set rules. Biggest problem with most kids in our generation, their parents wanted to be liked not respected. 2. Psy ops are underrated. My mom had this line for whenever I got into trouble. She’d say, “When I ask you a question like this, I already know the answer. I am giving you a chance to come clean...” At which point I’d sing like a canary because I’m a scaredy cat. I found out today she rarely knew the answers. Brilliant and maniacal. 3. Always on the same page. My mom and dad rarely fought in front of my brother and I. They would never go back on the word of the other. United front to deal with us mini terrorists. 4. Make time. My dad had this silly line that is actually not silly: “You can make money, you can make a cake, but you can’t make time.” So they made allllll the time for us. 5. Four chairs. We have these four chairs in our living room, no tv. Growing up, we’d sit and debate and talk for hours. Politics. Opinions. Our days. Only thing not allowed was an opinion you couldn’t defend unemotionally. We still do this today. 6. Mi Sangre mi siempre. They’d always say, blood comes first. They meant it. I hired my brother, my dad, my mom, my cousin at times. We stick together and we may fight like hell but never in front of others. 7. Once you decide, you don’t quit. We could play any sport or instrument BUT if we committed we had to play the full year all out. No 3 lessons and quit. Taught us to choose thoughtfully and keep going even when it hurt. 8. Always call. They still pick up the phone nearly every time it’s family. My dad in a meeting will pause to answer my mom. My husband taught me this too, and I try to do the same. If they’re your first priority this is an easy way to prove it. 9. You’re not a princess, you’re a president. My dad always used to say that line. He told me recently that I lived up to it. Gutted me. He taught us we didn’t need to be saved, instead we could save ourselves and help others. 10. Hug often and seriously. If you’ve ever hugged my parents, they mean it when they do it. Such a simple, free gesture. My mom always gives you a hug and says vaya con dios… go with God. How can you not do big things with parents that hold you like that? Just some Lessons from the Road from parents I happen to think are some of the best in the world. Moms and dads everywhere, I’m in awe of you. Hardest job I’ve ever seen. *This is one of my favorite pics of me and my dad. Doesn’t get old.

Brian Gomez liked thisBrian Gomez liked thisHace exactamente dos años tome una de las decisiones más complejas de mi vida profesional. Después de años de trabajo en una industria que moviliza personas, capital y grandes proyectos, decidí apostar por mis propias ideas 💡 Y es que estos dos años han tenido DE TODO!! Puertas que se cerraron. Ideas que conté y más de una vez me dijeron “estás loco”. Dudas, incertidumbres, errores y días en los que pensaba si había tomado la decisión correcta. Pero también mucho trabajo, aprendizajes y personas que decidieron creer. Hoy dos años después, miró atrás y veo algo que me llena de orgullo: Agroventure Capital Un equipo, inversionistas que confiaron en nuestro propósito, proyectos agrícolas en marcha y sobre todo personas que hoy tienen oportunidad de empleo digno gracias a lo que estamos construyendo. Y quizás eso es lo que más me emociona: lo que comenzó como una idea en mi cabeza hoy es un proyecto que construimos entre muchos. Gracias a quienes han abierto la puerta, a quienes dijeron que sí y también a quienes dijeron que no. Todos han hecho ho parte del camino. Dos años después, sigo teniendo dudas, pero tengo muchas más razones para seguir creyendo. Una foto que muestra parte de nuestro equipo, son muchos más los que están creyendo y contribuyendo. También un agradecimiento a quienes hicieron parte de esto y ya no están, cada uno ha sido clave para llegar a donde estamos 🍃 ———— Quédate en mi cuenta y sígueme que en un año te contaré que ha pasado con este gran proyecto y con la comunidad de #agroapasionados 🛎️

Brian Gomez liked thisBackground screening doesn’t have to be boring. 👀 One of the things I’m having the most fun with at BackgroundPro is finding new ways to talk about an industry that’s incredibly important — but isn’t exactly known for exciting marketing. 😂 Behind the fun messaging is a simple idea: Great candidates are worth moving quickly for. The hiring experience matters, and background screening should help keep that momentum going. Excited about what we’re building — and having a little fun along the way. 💚 #BackgroundPro #BackgroundScreening #Staffing #Recruiting #Hiring #TalentAcquisition #HRTechBrian Gomez liked thisInterview? ✅ Offer? ✅ Background check? …still waiting. 👀 Awkward. Your screening process shouldn’t be the reason a great candidate is stuck in limbo.

Brian Gomez liked thisBrian Gomez liked thisFrom avocado data to options trading. For Alejandro Gavito, HAB’s Director of Business Insights and Data, learning doesn’t stop at the office. He decided to take up options trading as a hobby and quickly discovered just how challenging it could be. Despite thinking about quitting more than once, Alejandro kept going, pushed outside his comfort zone and is now actively trading. His takeaway? Sometimes the most rewarding hobbies are the ones that challenge you the most. We’re having fun getting to know the people behind HAB. Stay tuned for more team fun facts! 🥑 #HassAvocadoBoard #MeetTheTeam #TeamHAB

Brian Gomez liked thisBrian Gomez liked thisIt had been many years since I last attended an Eastern Produce Council event, and I was thrilled to be at the Tailgate Dinner at MetLife Stadium. Thank you to Susan McAleavey ,Eastern Produce Council, Oppy and Idaho Potato Commission for organizing such a fantastic event. It was wonderful to reconnect with longtime friends and make new connections. I look forward to many more as I represent A&J Produce Corporation. I also had the privilege of touring the stadium and learning about its impressive capabilities, history, and memorabilia. Seeing O.J. Anderson again was a huge plus. Go Canes! #easternproducecouncil #freshproduce
