Two and a half months after Wade Barnes stepped down as company CEO, Farmers Edge has named Vibhore Arora as CEO effective June 6, 2022.
Arora comes to Farmers Edge from Amazon Canada Fulfillment Services where he was president and involved in the past eight years in building that company’s fulfillment in Canada.
“I am pleased to welcome Vibhore to Farmers Edge. His diverse experience, leadership skills, and proven track record for driving transformation make him an ideal candidate to lead Farmers Edge in the next phase of its journey. I also want to thank Wade Barnes, the visionary founder of Farmers Edge, for his dedication and significant contributions as CEO of the organization over many years,” said Bill McFarland, Chair of the Board of Directors in a company statement.
In the same company announcement Arora said, “I am thrilled to join the incredible team at Farmers Edge. It’s an exciting time in the agriculture industry while it’s undergoing rapid change and digitization. Farmers Edge with its cutting-edge technology and innovative solutions is extremely well-positioned to be a major player in this digital transformation. I look forward to working with these talented individuals and taking this company forward to greater heights.”
