Wally and his company were a premier supplier and business partner for DMP. Wally is an innovative leader that understands the importance of customer service. Always the gentleman, Wally has great integrity and perspective on the US and Canadian markets. I would highly recommend Wally as a leader, manager, or supplier of solutions. A man of his word.
