Bill
Owner
I was a restaurant manager for ten years before starting this company in 2001. Now with the help of my well trained team, I assist my clients in sourcing good quality fresh food products at a fair price. Delivered to your door and stocked on your cooler shelves as you like!
We have insider relationships with a network of brokers and dealers that allow us to have access to fresh produce from around the country and the world year round. And because of the efficiencies that I have built into our systematic way of operating we can deliver fast and fresh at very competitive prices!
We have been in business since November of 2001. From our humble beginning where I purchased our first used delivery truck with a cash advance on a credit card, we have grown to where we are today. We have a 7100 square foot building which houses our distribution center and now deliver to clients in ten counties surrounding Tampa Bay!
Owners and managers of restaurants, hotels, country clubs, dinner cruise ships, and assisted living facilities have partnered with us to solve the challenges of fresh food supply and on time delivery for two decades now. And we are just getting started!
Fabrice

Fabrice has been contributing to Yankee Produce Company for most of the last 19 years. He was participating in deliveries and processing invoices from the time he was just 3 years old!
Now having completed his business degree from the University of Tampa, he has taken on the role of business manager. His experience allows him to contribute in all areas of the business including administrative, sales, and operations.
Mike
Warehouse Manager
Michael has been working in the produce delivery business since 2004. While living in Orlando, FL, he worked with a company very similar to Yankee Produce for over 16 years. Mike joined our team in February 2021 and jumped right in starting to make contributions to our team in his very first week!
“It seemed like a natural fit, and a Blessing! Soon after I moved to Tampa from Orlando I had dropped off my resume at the Yankee office. A few days later I had an interview and I was working within 5 days! I have found my niche. I love working nights and this job presents new challenges for me to solve every day!“
Joe
Sales Manager
Joe has been working at Yankee Produce Company since 2010 and has a total of 35 years working in the produce industry in Tampa! Being accessible to clients and helping them solve their product sourcing needs has always been a priority for Joe.
This has allowed him to build strong relationships with clients that have lasted years if not decades. “I think the reason that I have been so successful over the years is that I just really enjoy meeting and talking with people.”

Logan has grown up in the business, but has just recently become an official employee. Now he is responsible for the operational support functions of the warehouse.
