To Whom It May Concern:
From: Robert Fleury
Subject: Recommendation for Fred Rainville
I am pleased to provide a reference for Mr. Fred Rainville. As a Market Unit Vice-
President for Coca-Cola, I had the pleasure to work with Fred for the past 2 years
during which he was my main contact for the Canada Dry Mott’s brands.
While working with Fred, I found him very approachable, energetic and efficient. In
addition, Fred has always presented himself in a direct, honest, considerate and
thoughtful manner.
During the course of his work, Fred has proved to be an invaluable resource and a
very good ambassador for his brands. He successfully increased share and volume
within the Eastern Region by building solid relationships based on trust and
credibility with the Sales teams. He also demonstrated his analytical skills on
numerous occasions through market/business analysis and was able to make solid
recommendations and provide actionable plans. We also had frequent
communications on business strategies and execution of the different programs at the
store level.
Fred was an exceptional partner overall. He was able to build strong business
relationships and was easy to interact with and communicated well with other team
members.
I would definitely recommend Fred for any related position he is seeking in the
future. I have been consistently impressed by both his personal attitude and his focus
on the job.
If you would like to discuss his attributes in more detail, please do not hesitate to
contact me.
