Benjamin Seror

Purchase and Production Manager - RTW & Couture - Men & Women
About

My carreer was built for 12 years in RTW and Couture houses as production and purchasing Manager/Director for 3 main brands ANNE VALERIE HASH, JOSEPH & CARVEN. As I always believed, it is important to achieve his dreams or at least to try, in 2019, I decided to switch for my second passion, GASTRONOMY ! I opened a bistronomic restaurant in Clichy (close suburb of north Paris) and it became Top 3 of the city within 2 years ! After 4 years, I decided to sell my restaurant and to go back to fashion as General Sales Manager Europe for a top mill of Ningbo. All those experiences, made the person I am today with a clear vision of my ideal everyday job ! Don't hesitate to contact me, if you're looking for multi-skills candidate !
