Bio
Octavia Uner
Laurentiu and I worked together for 3 years at Ursus Breweries, where he was my direct manager in Modern Trade Sales Department. He is a hard-working, demanding and yet a warm colleague. Laurentiu has high standards for himself inspiring the team to keep finding new ways to developed competencies and set professional records too. He is resourceful in order to find solutions and deliver the targets. Besides all numerical target that we managed to deliver as a team especially in the tough market conditions (such as beer market regression in 2013-2014 in Romania), I was motivated to keep on improving myself as Laurentiu never let my down through all those difficult sales negotiation times. Never the less demanding, but professionally fair. Was great working with him.

Laurentiu is customer-service oriented, very knowledgeable and highly driven. As I remember, Laurentiu had strong relationships across all key modern trade customers. If you ever need an experienced leader to develop a modern trade channel strategy, Laurentiu is your go-to person.
