Summary

I was an equipment dealer from 1991 through 2012 selling new and used equipment in NYC. I eventually expanded into a machinery repair business, dealing with anything from slicers to mixers. In 2012 through 2019 I ventured into Design, Build and Supplied all equipment necessary for the project. In 2019 I ended up moving down to Florida with the idea of expanding the design build in South Florida. Unfortunately for me Covid hit the country and the momentum slowed down to very little. I eventually went in other directions. I finally realized that I needed to get back to what I knew best. I have a lot of history in the food service equipment industry from equipment lines, to used equipment and more. I'm looking to get back into what I know best, which is restaurant equipment and all other attachments to the industry. I have over 30 years experience to offer Delray Restaurant Equipment and their new future being acquired by CKS (Commercial Kitchen Stop). I believe I could be a good fit for the new expansion of Delray Beach Food Service Equipment. I am looking to be very aggressive in sales both in house and in the field. I would like to suggest a 1,000.00 per week all my expenses would be included plus a commission set percentage. I'm also willing to do light deliveries to customers creating even more sales on delivery. I feel I have a great deal of knowledge and know how to CKS. I have all my own tools, computers, IPAD, smart phone, truck and so much more to offer your company. I would kindly appreciate a consideration in joining CKS's future to come.
