Jacob Darling
Director + CEO, J.H. Leavy & Co
My focus is on continued new business development for Darling Group in the export of primarily New Zealand and Australian produce. The Just Avocados export programme is a significant part of my role and I am passionate about obtaining the best values for growers.
I have held various roles within Darling Group since 2017 including National Sales Manager at JH Leavy & Co., GM Sales and Marketing, and Chief Operating Officer for NZ supply.
Prior to working with Darling Group, I managed produce imports into New Zealand for Global Fresh New Zealand and worked in sales for Tom Lange Co, one of the largest purchasers and distributors of fresh fruits and vegetables in the USA.
