Bio
Ruud Wilbers
Peter and I have worked together several times. Peter is a professional buyer with an eye for detail, because he buys brands for Open 32 but is also responsible for their private label, he knows exactly what is going on at the side of the supplier and the producer. He is also very interested in the buying and dressing behaviour of the end consumer, which makes him a buyer with a broad vision.

Peter, een van de meest betrouwbare mensen op het gebied van inkoop en streven naar lange termijn relaties die ik ken, en al meer dan 20 jaar mee samenwerk. Hard op inhoud en zacht op de mens.
