Bob Spencer Quotations

We make it very clear to employees that you are allowed to advance and there is no glass ceiling that prevents them to advance because of their heritage. We have had people go from our fields to our office.

We pride ourselves in being a well-rounded, blue-collar group.

The storms really threw a kink into our growing operations, especially around Immokalee. Some of the yield dropped by 80 percent.

I think Davis is the team to beat.

Our workers understand that we empathize with the immigration issues, but, at the same time, tomatoes need harvesting.

They've got some good singles and doubles players. They could make a serious run for the region championship.

Davis is going to be very good this year. They've got tough doubles and even tougher singles.

What we are trying to do is set up a group that will prevent the organizations that don't take care of their workers from being able to compete with organizations that are taking care of workers and treating them in the right way.

What we will be interested in is the next generation. Some are simply cashing out.
