Steve's vision is to provide small-mid size companies in the perishable foods industry with technology products and services that will result in their growth and sustainability in today's competitive environment.

Among Steve's many responsibilities were coordinating and training VARs, managing sales meetings, planning special events, and providing development and implementation support of the AgWare™ product line. Prior to his tenure at Franwell, Steve was General Manager for a Central Florida strawberry/vegetable grower/shipper in Florida and also worked as a USDA Fruit and Vegetable Inspector with emphasis in destination market inspections.

Tooty and Cody

Office Assistants

Dogs don't have e-mails!

Tooty and Cody, Steve and Sandy's two adorable (read as “spoiled”) dogs are the ProWare mascots. They don't really have a specific job other than to hang out, beg for treats, run around outside, and take siestas whenever and wherever they please – usually laying in the middle of the doorway!
