Jon Kimball comes from a produce industry family. Growing up he always knew he'd follow in the footsteps of his father, Scott Kimball & uncle, Tim Kimball. At the tender age of 2, Jon would accompany his dad to the market often. His earliest memories were of how fast and calculated every aspect of the market worked. He was intrigued how the fork lifts, hand trucks and pallet jacks operated and how everyone communicated with a lot of moving parts to get a positive end result. Learning hard work and success doesn’t come easy, at 15 Jon started working graveyard in the summer at a local produce company as a warehouse-man. From there he did order entry, driving, street buying, quality control, warehouse manager and then onto outside sales. In September of 2006 he began working for a small produce brokerage. He decided after 11 years it was time to move on. With much support from family & friends, his hustle and grind finally paid off. September 4th, 2017 Jon made his dream come true and Kimball Produce Sales Inc. was born.
Produce runs through Danielle Brenner’s blood with a family history going back to her grandfather, Francis Marzetta and father, Hans Brenner who both worked at the South City Market for many years. Danielle’s professional career path began after she completed 1 year at the College of San Mateo where she played softball on a collegiate level. At the age of 19 Danielle began working as a Customer Service Representative for a big conference planning company. She spent over 14 years in the Event Marketing/Conference planning industry as a Project Manager where she managed over 10,000 attendee events. Over the years, traveling took away precious time from Danielle’s only son so she decided to take a leap and get into Sales. The stars aligned and her childhood friend (Jon) offered her a job in the Produce Industry.
