For 80 years, Simos Produce in Springfield has delivered fruits and vegetables to hundreds of customers, including restaurants, schools, retirement homes, jails, and grocery stores. The family-owned wholesaler had a niche, and longtime staff ran through a day’s delivery with the same ease it takes to slice a cucumber.
Then, COVID-19 struck, and Scott Smith, Simos’ assistant general manager, says the economic hit was almost instantaneous. As restaurants and schools were forced to close, the need for deliveries tapered down.
Smith began talking about the crisis Simos faced with Jeremy Durrin, the account and marketing manager, and Trevor Emond, the company president.
