Cecilia Castelli

Carlos is a great and reliable professional, with concrete deep understanding of the shoes industry (product, components, manufacturers, sourcing strategies, ...) and its dynamics. His management capabilities include making appropriate decisions in the right times and leading a team by building trustable relationships. Personally, I really appreciated working with Carlos, especially due to his result orientation and to the "benefit" of sharing and discussing ideas with someone very open-minded

Marco TOSI

PAOLO SIEPI
