Bio
Gary Stanton
Manuel is a tenacious, driven Salesman/Business Development Manager, one of the best I have worked with. He was instrumental in opening up new markets for PFK when I was CEO. Despite many problems that hindered his progress that were outside of his control he never gave up and I admired his unrelenting commitment to the company and products he was developing and selling. Manuel is a brilliant networker and is able to operate in many different countries and cultures. I have no hesitation in recommending him.
