ORLANDO, Fla. — Share-ify, a cloud platform for corporate compliance, food safety and quality assurance, announced the addition of Shannon Shuman to its executive team as senior vice president.
Shuman will lead business development initiatives to maximize growth potential for the Share-ify platform. His role will include the development and oversight of the organic sales organization as well as customer experience and brand visibility.
Shuman enters the role with over 20 years of executive leadership managing revenue operations and product development for multiple companies serving both food and agriculture industries, specifically in the fresh produce and hemp markets.
Most recently, Shuman established and led the growth of a media brand serving the agricultural hemp industry, Hemp Industry Daily. Prior to that, he spent 12 years as the executive director and vice president of The Packer, transforming the century-old publication into a multi-media enterprise featuring a suite of publications, digital media solutions, multiple industry trade shows and a global sourcing platform. In addition, Shuman has led start-up media companies and served as a marketing leader for Intel.
“We are so pleased to have Shannon on the executive team,” said Ernesto Nardone, CEO of Share-ify. “He adds tremendous depth to assist the company in outreach to our existing customers and better explaining who we are and how we can help both new and future customers.”
Adding this role signals a strategic shift from Share-ify’s extensive product development phase to a more aggressive emphasis on market adoption, according to the company. In addition to furthering its products to the fresh produce industry, Share-ify will also offer its services to other markets that require stringent standards, compliance and vendor/supplier management solutions.
