This week’s key takeaway:
Pulling back the curtain on Sherwin-Williams ANZ with Richard
Reneman
Episode intro:
Something a bit different this week, as Ben takes a trip out
of the studio to a top-of-the-range facility and speaks to Richard
Reneman: director of Sherwin-Williams ANZ.
Based down in Kincumber, the Sherwin-Williams site boasts a
state-of-the art paint-mixing room and some top training and
manufacturing facilities. Ben picked Richard’s brains about the
success of the business, and why now is the time for
Sherwin-Williams to announce themselves to the world.
