About Mushroom supply & services
|
Our Start
Mushroom Supply & Services (MSS Inc.) was founded in 2003 by David Iaconi and Jacque Donnell. After 35 years of combined growing experience, David and Jacque opened their business providing unique, quality growing products and equipment to the Mushroom Farmer. Starting only with one product, MSS Inc. has grown and expanded into offering a multitude of mushroom supplies, equipment and consulting services. Mushroom Supply & Services is dedicated to problem solving. Our commitment is to work with the growers and match our products with their operational needs. Our belief in genuine service to our customers has brought MSS Inc. to the forefront of the supply world. |
New Direction
With the implementation of MGAP (Mushroom Good Agricultural Practices) in 2009, we at MSS Inc. realized the critical importance of food safety at the farm level. Increased consumer concern regarding food safety has led us to diversify outside of the mushroom industry into all industries handling food. |

David Iaconi grew up on his grandfathers farm near Kennett Square, Pennsylvania, known as the "Mushroom Capital of the World." He started working in the mushroom industry in 1974 where he completed various jobs around the mushroom farm.
David moved to South America in 1993 to work and educate local farmers in the business. He returned to the US 3 years later and continued to work in the business, eventually applying his skills and knowledge in the sales and distribution area with MRD corp. He started MSS, Inc. in 2002 with partner Jacque Donnell. David is fluent in Spanish.
Jacque Donnell began working in the mushroom industry in 1980 at MRD Corp. He was responsible for various different jobs including being in charge of the spawning crews, running a lab, and developing humidification systems within the industry.
Jacque and David met in 2000 and together they had the idea of opening their own distribution and service company to growers, shippers and packers not only in and around PA, the "Mushroom Capital of the World," but also in Canada and South America.
