His experience spans from his early years on Fresh Network's brokerage side to his most recent position at Dole in Salinas, California, where he started working in vegetable sales before moving on to covering the full line of berries. Other roles he has taken in between have been at New Star as the Sales/Leaf Commodity Manager and Tanimura and Antle as the Cauliflower and Broccoli Commodity Manager.

He brings a wealth of experience that will complement our expanding needs.”
With a degree in food nutritional science from Fresno State University, the Stockton native has not only gone into the business aspect of his degree, but also leads an all-around health-conscious life. His interests include running, attending hot yoga classes, and spending quality time with his two sons when they ride their mountain bikes or do any other outdoor activities together.
The undertaking of his new role at Ippolito will include tasks such as handling sales and commodity management. Landa’s experience will only further establish this second-generation farming company.
