Maria Pacheco began her career within the supermarket industry in August 2007. Maria is currently the O.P.D. (Order Pickup Delivery) manager in ShopRite. This means her and her team are responsible for all the transactions customers make digitally. The O.P.D department can be a bit chaotic, but Maria loves the fast paced environment that comes with her job.
Having been in the supermarket industry for 17 years, Maria has noticed several changes within her store. One of the major changes Maria has witnessed is the increase in varieties of food to accommodate people from more demographics. Another change that Maria has seen is how technology aids her and other members within her department.
Maria Pacheco is an active UFCW member having served on the Shop Rite bargaining committee. She said serving on the committee made her more aware of how the union functions, and what other members can do, to make it run smoothly.
