Post by The Fresh CrEd

There’s a lot more to Ed Bertaud than the voice behind the mic, and we’re proud to see more of that story being told. Ed has spent more than three decades helping move the produce industry forward through reusable packaging, stronger supply chains, and the kind of relationship-first leadership that doesn’t always get the spotlight. That same mindset is a big part of what built The Fresh CrEd. What started as conversations between friends became a platform centered on people, growth, failure, resilience, and the stories that rarely make it into the usual industry talking points. Ed has helped shape that from day one, not just as a host, but through the way he listens, challenges, reflects, and keeps the conversation honest. This Blue Book feature is a well-earned look at the work, perspective, and character behind the person we’re fortunate to call a friend and a central pillar of The Fresh CrEd. We’re proud of you, Ed!
