  • Family-owned Business Breaking Boundaries And Venturing Beyond Industry Norms
    Jun 4 2024

    Jeremy Vesta is Chief Operating Officer of Curally where he uses his expertise as an economist and his extensive business leadership background to empower companies to optimize their investment in their most valuable resource—their employees—through innovative strategies. Additionally, Jeremy is the Managing Director of Vesta Holdings, a company with diverse interests in the fresh beef industry. Among its ventures, Vesta Holdings is involved in beef manufacturing through Harmony Beef, a company established and run by Jeremy and his family. Before joining Vesta, he gained experience as a commodities trader at Bunge. One of Jeremy’s core beliefs is that to address the challenge of rising insurance costs, businesses must adopt new approaches that go beyond the surface-level factors like plan design, benefit providers, and coverage provided. Instead, the focus should be on identifying and resolving the underlying factors driving these costs. By doing so, business owners, benefit administrators, and HR leaders can effectively mitigate the impact of escalating insurance expenses. ➭ If you found this video valuable, give it a like. ➭ If you know someone who needs to see it, share it. ➭ Leave a comment below with your thoughts. ➭ Add it to a playlist if you want to watch it later. ★☆★ SUBSCRIBE TO MY YOUTUBE CHANNEL: ★☆★ • Click Here ➭ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCY4OPMYLU-Bzl0AAplu-dig?sub_confirmation=1 ► SOCIAL MEDIA • Instagram ➭ https://www.instagram.com/johnpandrade/ • https://www.facebook.com/go4ceo • https://www.linkedin.com/in/go4-ceo-493310178/ ► BUSINESS INQUIRIES ONLY: • Email ➭ john@go4ceo.com ► THINGS I MENTIONED: • Building a new way to help the 15% of Health Insureds increase their success in Healthcare Hi it's John, thanks for stopping by!
