Gerardo Serio
I am Italian and have been living in France for a long time.
Working in International sales has been a natural choice to me.
After working many years in several full-time positions, I decided to offer my expertise on a part-time basis to SMEs.
I have an experience of over 20 years in direct sales, as much as in building networks of distributors and other business partners.
Hence, I have been able to develop my employers' turnover, often from scratch.
The most exciting challenge for me is opening new markets.
Main industry expertise: consumer goods, business services.
Languages: English, French, Italian, Spanish, German.
I am French and have lived in the United States and Belgium.
Passionate about foreign languages and cultural exchanges, I quickly made my passion my job. I needed a sweet mix of travel, discovery, encounters: international trade came to me.
After 20 years of employment in two French SMEs manufacturing medical devices in positions of manager and international director, since 2021 I have been helping SMEs open new market abroad.
I built and managed distribution networks (up to fifty partners).
I also recruited export staff and contributed to the influence of regional SMEs in Hauts de France.
What do I like most? Find the winning manufacturer-distributor match and take into account the specific characteristics of each market.
Main industry expertise: health and medical devices, cosmetics.
Languages: French, English, Spanish and a few words of Italian, Dutch and Arabic. Always helpful!
