IFSI’s Chris D’Angelo Named to the 2025 Fruit + Vegetable 40 Under 40 Class

We’re proud to share that Chris D’Angelo, a valued member of the IFSI team, has been named to this year’s Fruit + Vegetable 40 Under 40 list. This national program recognizes the next generation of leaders who are making a meaningful impact across the produce industry.

Each year, the Fruit + Vegetable 40 Under 40 awards celebrate individuals who exemplify innovation, dedication, and leadership. Honorees are selected for the positive marks they are making—shaping the future of fruit and vegetable production through their expertise, hard work, and commitment to excellence.

Chris embodies those qualities and more. His contributions at IFSI, especially in advancing our work in sweet corn, beet, and carrot genetics, continue to strengthen our mission and move our industry forward. We’re thrilled to see his leadership recognized at this level.

Congratulations, Chris—well deserved!
