Description

Starting in 1858 in Victoria, British Columbia, amid the Canadian Gold Rush, Oppy has always been a champion of innovation and opportunity.
Here is the evidence. Oppy established Vancouver's first produce warehouse in 1887. Their founder, David Oppenheimer, was mayor from 1888 to 1891 and was credited with developing the city's infrastructure. They imported the first mandarin oranges from Japan in 1891, the Granny Smith in 1956, and from 1973 to 1988, they brought us Royal Galas, Braeburn, and Fuji apples.
“Expect the world from us.” To some, those might seem daunting words to live up to, but to Kori Martin, at Oppy, they are words she strives to live up to every day. Oppy’s goal is to add value to the needs of its partnerships with growers, retailers, and logistics. They do this with careful attention paid to developing their internal company culture.
