Bio
Chris Vandenborre
In 2011 my company was hired to handle the representation of a large hotel chain in the Benelux. Davy handled this project and exceeded all targets on the 3 main subjects. During the years I worked with Davy, I got to know him as: hard working, innovative, sales and service driven business developer and representative. He is the ultimate networker and is loyal to your brand. Besides all professional recommendations, I also want to recommend Davy as a great person, one I would always work with again if/when the occasion rises.
