In the next episode of "The Caring Economy" podcast, we're thrilled to welcome Rodolfo Spielmann, the President and CEO of NatureSweet, a greenhouse-grown produce company that's not only known for its delicious snacking tomatoes but also for its incredible dedication to corporate social responsibility.

Headquartered in Texas, NatureSweet is transforming the lives of agricultural workers in North America with a bigger purpose in mind than just growing fruits and veggies. With more than 6,000 employees across five facilities in Mexico and one in Willcox, AZ, the company is committed to making a positive impact on the communities it serves.

NatureSweet goes above and beyond to treat its workers right, with initiatives that set a powerful example of corporate social responsibility. They pay their workers more than double the minimum wage in Mexico, providing them with opportunities to earn up to 300% in bonus compensation. The company also prioritizes education, reducing illiteracy rates by offering educational programming for workers to earn elementary, middle, and high school diplomas. To further support their workforce, NatureSweet provides access to mental health services and offers self-improvement programs ranging from human development to parenting and problem-solving.

During the episode, we'll hear from Rodolfo Spielmann himself, who will share the story of NatureSweet's success in social responsibility and how these initiatives have positively impacted the company and its employees. The International Fresh Produce Association (IFPA) recognized NatureSweet's commitment by featuring the company in a Sustainability Case Study.

NatureSweet has earned a trifecta of certifications, proving their commitment to doing the right thing. The company is Fair Trade Certified, Equitable Food Initiative (EFI) Certified, and recently earned B Corp Certification, making it the world's largest controlled environment agriculture (CEA) company to achieve such recognition.

Join us for an enlightening conversation with Rodolfo Spielmann as we discuss the incredible strides NatureSweet is making in the sustainable food movement and its vision for the future.
