Your Produce Man
My name is Michael Marks, Your Produce Man. I have been in the produce industry for half a century. Starting in a mom-and-pop grocery store, I eventually worked my way into produce distribution, becoming marketing director for one of the nation's largest produce distributors, with 23 operating companies in North America. I was also the produce ambassador and radio spokesperson for one of the largest and most respected family-owned grocery store chains in California. I have been Your Produce Man on television for 35 years, preaching the gospel of fruits and vegetables in my news reports, in my field and orchard reports, and now in a monthly 30-minute program, What's in Season with Michael Marks.

Is produce news? You bet it is. When I first started working in a produce department, produce sales of about 125 produce items accounted for maybe 4 - 5% of overall grocery store sales. Today, with more than 350 items in a produce department, produce sales account for 12 - 15% of overall grocery store sales. And have you noticed where they place the produce department? At the front, high profile and high visibility location.
