Matt Rogers is co-founder and general manager of AgSocio. Prior to starting AgSocio, Matt spent many years working on strategic purchasing initiatives and social, environmental, and food safety issues in the produce supply chain for Whole Food Market. Through his work with growers across the US, Mexico, Central and South America, Matt saw the need for a new approach to agricultural labor that better serves workers and growers alike. Matt took a leave from Whole Foods Market to explore the opportunity. He quickly found a lead investor and AgSocio was born. Matt serves on the standards committee of the Equitable Food Initiative and on the board of directors of CIERTO. Matt is currently a member of the National Agricultural Worker Advisory Council of the National Center for Farmworker Health.
