Master or Maverick?

There are times that I’ve been considered a MASTER, there are times that I’ve been considered a MAVERICK, and there’s times I think that there’d be pieces of each in myself as well as within our organization.

What sets you apart from the rest of the industry?

As a producer, there are certain things that we do maybe a little differently. We look at our customers very carefully, and we really spend a lot of time with our customers trying to provide solutions to our customers. The more that we can open our doors to let our customers and our customers’ customers know what we’re doing, the closer we can come to being a part of those customers. I think that’s really important because food is something that we all of course have to have, and is something that we produce.
