One year ago, my professional life changed, as it was the day that it all ended. The Dakota Dunes office of Tyson Foods was officially closed and just like that, I no longer worked for Tyson Foods. Tyson Foods was the only company I had ever worked for after I graduated from college in 2002. I had spent nearly 21 years working for Tyson Foods and I never thought that it would end just so simply, but I soon realized that it had. As I look back and reflect, now one year later, there are quite a few things that I have learned: 1.      The sun rose the next day and life went on. 2.      Relationships matter. 3.      Friendships made at work will last and transcend employment & employers. I’ve been fortunate to find new employment and to stay in the Meat/Food Industry. I started working for Marel in November 2023. I have enjoyed the change of jobs and the challenge of learning a new company, new products, and a new role. Many of the learnings from my roles at Tyson have helped me in my new role with Marel. I am still in Sales, just now selling equipment to companies in the Meat & Food industry instead of selling meat to retailers, distributors, and processors. I wake up each day and I am invigorated to help my customers find solutions to help them operate more effectively. Change is constant in life. That doesn’t mean that it is easy.  I’ve found that it is best to embrace the change, find the good in it, and go make the best of it. Here’s to the future and the changes that will come with it!

Doing the "actual" work of supplier inclusion means more than just 'speaking' on panels or sharing what we're doing—it’s about rolling up our sleeves and getting involved in every step of the process It’s about mentoring suppliers 1-on-1, matching them with the right connections, and advocating for them every step of the way. It’s about working closely with procurement teams to align opportunities and build robust pipelines that create tangible impact because to 'diversify a supply chain means to de-risk a supply chain'. Most importantly, it’s about being transparent about where the real value lies and ensuring suppliers understand how to navigate complex landscapes. I'm excited to partner with Aramark Avendra International and Diversity Masterminds® on a 10-week development program. Together, we’ll help select diverse suppliers tackle the complexities of foodservice and distribution. Looking forward to the journey! #SupplierInclusion #LevelUp Sysco #SupplierDiversity #Mentorship #Partnership #Procurement #Foodservice #DEI Natily Santos, MBA Jonathan Mason Heather Cox 🎗️Mercedes Rodriguez

This morning our receiving crew had 2 live unload containers and our receiving team was a bit overwhelmed. However, with the grit,determination and quick thinking both the receiving lead and I have, we were side-by-side our associates with all hands on deck unloading floor loaded containers all within 3 hours. With that being said, I believe as a leader, allowing yourself to be humbled sometimes is a must. I remember when I was a warehouse associate and how motivated I felt when I would see someone from a leadership role like Justin Yarbrough or Aaron Barnes step up and step in to get a job done with me. Although I have been where every associate is at some point to reach a leadership role, I never want to forget where I started. I’ve learned you don’t lead or build trust with a team by just making constant demands, but you do build a strong team when push comes to shove and your actions displayed are “we are in this together, let’s get the job done.” and empty 2 containers with them. We have an amazing team with can-do attitudes and although my body may be beaten, bruised and hurting for the next week 😂 I have so much gratitude and truly am blessed to have and lead a team like ours at our Rockwall DC.

Go for green

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐋𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐫 𝐀𝐝𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐠𝐞: 𝐓𝐞𝐱𝐚𝐬 𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐬 $𝟏𝟔𝟖 𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭 In a strategic move to accommodate the abundant growth in Texas, Coca-Cola Southwest Beverages LLC announced its three-year expansion plan at 3400 Fossil Creek Blvd in Fort Worth. This initiative will not only double the warehouse space to an impressive 400,000 square feet but will also introduce new production lines, marking a significant milestone in their journey. With an estimated investment of $168 million, this expansion will help the company meet the production needs to serve its valued customers and to further solidify its position as one of the leading Coca-Cola product bottlers in the U.S. Jean Claude Tissot, President of Coca-Cola Southwest Beverages, expressed enthusiasm for the project, stating, "As North Texas continues to grow, we want to be prepared to support that growth. Coca-Cola products are some of the most popular brands in the state. It’s up to us to ensure we can get them in the hands of our customers now and in the future." It's worth noting that this expansion comes on the heels of the recent investment in a state-of-the-art $250 million plant in north Houston, a testament to the benefits the state offers to fuel corporate expansion. As the company embarks on this exciting chapter of expansion and growth, they remain steadfast in their commitment to enriching the communities they serve and championing sustainability initiatives.
