Ocean Spray - Supply Chain Summer 2017 Internship

Ocean Spray Cranberries, Inc.

Supply Chain/Global Customer Operations – 2017 Summer Internship

Overview:

For 80 years, Ocean Spray’s logo has been an enduring symbol of what we stand for—taste, health & heritage.  We are an agricultural cooperative formed in 1930 by three cranberry growers who shared a common goal of expanding the market for their crop.  In addition, we are North America’s leading producer of shelf-stable juice drinks, and continue to be the best-selling brand name in this category since 1981.

At Ocean Spray we understand the value of working together, while knowing each individual plays a vital role in the company’s success.  Our business has always been and continues to be built on  people from different backgrounds, coming together for a common goal.  The same sense of opportunity, resourcefulness and innovation on which the Cooperative was founded is what drives Ocean Spray today!
