Megan Jacobsen Vice President of Marketing and Sales at Gills Onions. She, along with her team, is committed to sustainability from the time the seed is planted to when it is delivered to their customer.
It may be December for us, but for Gills Onions it is already springtime with an eye on summer and plans for autumn. With plantings complete for the upcoming 2021 spring season and preparations in place for the months to follow, the year is well underway, Megan Jacobsen, Vice President of Sales and Marketing, shares.
What I love about the onion industry is everyone serves a purpose—yes there is competition as with any category, but we also all play an important role in ensuring supply meets demand. More than 400 truckloads of onions are shipped and consumed daily in the U.S. Onions are the backbone of not just grocery, but industrial and foodservice as well, and everyone is needed to make that happen. So we have put a lot of energy this year into making the message not about Gills, but about onions in general.
