Riaan van Eeden

My name is Riaan. I have 25 year's experience in the direct and indirect marketing of animal care products. Presently I am a Branch Manager at Hinterland Heilbron. People skills are one of my strong points and a good relationship with my customers is my main priority. Product Knowledge is one of the most important things to have and to teach the sales staff at the different selling points. Empowering people is one of my main objectives in life.
