Production Lead/Line Operator
Freshstone Brands Inc
Kitchener, Ontario
03.2010 - 03.2022
- I began my employment at Freshstone as a production worker, where we prepared and packaged a variety of hot and cold foods, such as hand-rolled cabbage rolls and pizza wraps, and a range of cold salads, such as coleslaw, macaroni salad, potato salad, stuffing, and sauces. They are also one of the leading manufacturers of pureed/minced meals for hospitals and retirement homes in the country.
- Through my hard work ethic and leadership abilities, I quickly advanced to team lead/line operator, where I would be responsible for running a line with a team of anywhere between 4 and 10 people. I would be responsible for quality control of the product we would be making and packaging that day, and I would ensure that everything was up to a high standard, as well as maintaining the operation of the production line itself to ensure exceptional service, quality, and to meet deadlines.
- Through my years at Freshtone, I gained experience and knowledge in many departments, such as production, sanitation, QA (quality assurance), the lab department (testing for bacteria and pathogens), office administration, order picking, and the spice room, where I was responsible for weighing and distributing all ingredients needed for production the following day, as well as printing and organizing all paperwork, labels, and documentation for every production line operating the next day.

Server
Rockway Restaurant
