Bio
Patsy Sule, SCMA, MCIPS, BA
I have the distinct pleasure of working with Gina at BCNET. Her enthusiasm, hard work ethics and supportive nature attributed to Gina's great work ethics. Gina is fun to work with, strong team player and very focused in advancing her career in procurement. The great synergy we developed as teammates reflected on the team's high productivity procurement projects jointly delivered. I strongly recommend Gina and look forward for another opportunity to work with Gina.

As Gina's teammate at Vietgro Export-Import Company in two years, I benefited from her logical problem-solving, detail-oriented mindset, and sustained effort to ensure the supply and transportation seamlessly. By supporting the clients and training the junior salesperson to meet the client's satisfaction, client retention increased by 50%. Her commitment and tireless working hard helped the company bring in large new clients, of which Tibit - the big chain hypermarket of fresh fruits and vegetables in the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland. Her humour and honesty made herself more open so that we could easily share ideas and work together even if we had to deal with tight deadlines and intense pressure. I would love to have a chance to work with her again.
