In honor of FreshDirect's 20th Anniversary celebration, some of our longest-tenured employees are being recognized for their contributions over the years. Our first 20th Anniversary Employee Spotlight is Will Collier, Lead Personal Shopper in our Freezer department.

Q: What's your favorite part about working at FD?
A: My dedication to come in. I want to be there for my coworkers to help the team meet our goals.

Q: What's something you've learned by working at FD?
A: When I first started in the Freezer department, I knew I had a lot to learn. I wanted to learn all the different systems so I could master every job in the Freezer. Now I feel comfortable in any role in the Freezer department and can do anything that’s asked of me and my team.

Q: What does working at FD allow you to do in your personal life (go to college, support your family, buy a house, send your kids to school, travel to see your family, etc.)
A: It’s important to me that my son has all that he needs to be successful in life. By working at FreshDirect, I’ve sent my son to a private school to get a better education.

Q: What's a goal or a dream that you have?
A: Buy a house in Queens and see my kids graduate college.
