What are the responsibilities and job description for the Operations and Logistics Coordinator position at Strella?
Summary
More than 40% of all fresh produce is wasted in the US, which accounts for over 17 billion dollars in lost product annually and contributes more carbon dioxide emissions than all of US transportation combined. Our goal is to reduce these drastic numbers by making the produce supply chain smarter through data-driven decisions. Strella uses proprietary sensors to predict shelf life in the food supply chain. We use this information to reduce food waste and help deliver better quality produce to consumers. We have been commercialized for 5 years and are currently in our growth stage.
