New Jersey – July 11, 2022 – Throughout the course of his career, Dr. Roger Lallemand has served in a number of executive positions including founder, managing partner, strategist, consultant, and team leader. With a diverse skill set, Dr. Lallemand recently sat down to discuss his professional success in an exclusive online interview. When asked where the ideafor Sienna Foods came from, he states:
“Our main crop is papaya. We made an analysis on the local market and out of all the possible produce that local farmers grew, papaya turned out to be very difficult to cultivate. Papaya on the local market mostly comes from the Dominican Republic. It was a matter of import substitution, which means a crop that can be produced pretty cheap, but can also sell for a high price. It can potentially be very lucrative and you have to choose the lucrative crops since Haiti does not offer crop insurance for farmers.”
With a talent for generating multimillion-dollar revenue growth and conceptualizing new business endeavors, Dr. Lallemand also holds a Crop Advisor certification in Plant Biotechnology and Precision Agronomy. When asked how he brings ideas to life he discusses the importance of being a lifelong learner.
“I consider myself a student of life. I live in Manhattan. You see so many different business ideas and models out here. You expose yourself to alternative ways of thinking, this brings me back to the reading that I do to keep up to date on the latest developments in healthcare, information technology, and agriculture. At the very least, if you’re willing to see how far people are willing to go outside the box, you don’t need to be scared to think so as well. I love trying out new things without fear because others have done the same and have been successful.”
He also goes on to say that as CEO, it is not enough to “operate in your own bubble”. Working alongside a talented team of individuals, he recognizes the essential role that all of his employees play in the success of his business.
