Gilberto Garcia

I had the opportunity to work with Miguel in my time at Methode Monterrey, his plant supply 85% of the plastic and paint components to my plant, in the beginning his plant has a lot of quality and delivery opportunities, but Miguel and his team was able to turnaround the plant perfomance by implemented the right strategies and systems. Miguel is a strong leader and great team player with a lot of experience and will be an excellent addition to any organization.
