Sanctuary Oysters Logistics & Distribution Team

In our oyster production, every step matters. That’s why our team handles every part of the process from oyster growing and harvesting to the packaging and shipping with care. The Sanctuary Oysters logistics and distribution team is an integral part of our operations and is responsible for ensuring that our delicious oysters reach their destination fresh and on time. Handling orders from both the domestic and export markets, one of the team’s key functions is coordinating with the farm to properly pack and send out orders. They also handle all the necessary paperwork for customers and brokers to facilitate a smooth and seamless shipping process.

In addition to handling logistics for the domestic and export markets, the team also handles packing the product in coolers to ensure our Sanctuary Oysters arrive at their destination in the most optimum condition. Finally, they follow up with customers to ensure that the orders are delivered correctly and that our customers are all completely satisfied with their deliveries.

The team is additionally responsible for supporting the plant with purchases of articles related to packing, maintenance, and operation of the packing plant at San Ignacio. They coordinate logistics to send all these materials to the farm to keep it running smoothly. They also handle the importation of packing materials such as our branded red boxes and any other items that are needed for daily operations. Little details like this add up to make a big impact and we are grateful to have a team committed to keeping all facets of the company running seamlessly and smoothly.

 

The young and enthusiastic team is made up of three full-time members, with the help of occasional personnel for the packaging of orders for the domestic market. Miguel Mejia; Logistic Manager, Josue Lopez; Domestic Logistic coordinator, and Erick Arreola; Administrative Assistant. They are a young and enthusiastic team with a variety of skills and aptitudes, and they work together to successfully deliver shipments to customers in a timely fashion. Josue Lopez on our team notes that he, “really likes the work environment and teamwork that generates trust among everyone, as well as the diversity of personalities on the team and the way they complement and learn from each other and all those involved when we work.” Miguel Mejiaz shares, he is “honored to be part of the leading oyster export company of Mexico and have the opportunity to develop different activities that do a dynamic job with the help of enthusiastic young staff and the guidance of people with great experience from which we learn every day.”

 

Just as we give care and attention to the environment where we grow our oysters, we believe we must also give an equal level of care an attention to our team members. That’s why we are honored to provide our logistics and distribution team a great working environment and benefits that support their wellbeing outside of work as well. Erick Arreola on our team notes that he “loves the work environment and the opportunity for individual development (professional studies), flexible schedule when needed, and the direct support from the company during the pandemic.”
