General Manager - Distribution

Henry Ford once said that if he had given people what they asked for he would have given them faster horses. Innovation is about attitude and about willingness—an attitude of inquiry and a willingness to challenge the status quo whether it be in product, service or methodology. At Renaissance we strive to innovate around the core concept of always delivering the best customer experience possible.
