Stuart Musashi
Vice President of Southern Operations
Stuart’s job can be summed up in a single sentence: he runs farming operations for the Coachella Division. But doing so for such a large and diverse area is a very complicated task. To keep Sun World growing strong, he must oversee a variety of efforts and interact with diverse departments. Good thing he has 35 years of experience in vegetable production and eight years in grape production. All that knowledge comes in handy.If you ask Stuart about his favorite Sun World product the answer is always the same, MIDNIGHT BEAUTY® brand grapes. Whether they’re fresh from the field or frozen as a summer treat, Stuart looks forward to MIDNIGHT BEAUTY® season every year!
