Recently we were on assignment in Phoenix, Arizona and had the opportunity to visit with several folks who were attending the annual meeting of the group, Independent Distributors Association. Think heavy construction equipment and parts. While there we were able to reconnect with Willem Cornelisse the Managing Director of Cornelisse Trading a firm located in The Netherlands. Here we talk about a movement that started in Europe to ban a substance used in the manufacturing of nearly everything on the planet. The issue is that there is not yet a replacement substance and the damage would be huge to the manufacturing industry. Oh, the things you learn. Meet our friend Willem.
