DECADES OF EXPERIENCE
Bob began his career as a marble fabricator more than three decades ago and has since acquired extensive expertise in all aspects of production, budgeting, project management, and client interface. He has successfully managed enterprises worth hundreds of millions of dollars throughout the Northeast United States. He is equally at ease working on-site with installers to discuss execution methods as he is conversing with leaders of multi billion-dollar companies.
Alvaro, on the other hand, manages the Italy and the European region, drawing on his business acumen and managerial expertise gained through his MBA. Alvaro has also spent over 7 years working in the marble business, touching the dust in Carrara and other prominent marble locations. He has successfully managed the procurement, fabrication, dry lay reporting and logistics for thousands of containers of material. He also is consistently trying to implement newer management value solutions and quality control techniques with our partner factories.
