"Partnering with ICG Commerce complements a key pillar of Chiquita's corporate strategy to build a high-performance organization by providing our procurement organization access to the expertise that will enable us to focus on our core competencies and deliver more value to the company," said Onye Uzoukwu, Chiquita's vice president of global procurement.
