      Oct 2010 - Jan 2013
      General Manager

      I founded a PET recycling project, focusing on collection, classification, grinding, and packaging. From scratch, I scaled operations in Tunja to process 4 tons per month, training operators and ensuring quality. I introduced an immediate payment system—uncommon in an industry where 30-60 day terms were standard.Born in Valledupar, I lived in Bogotá for 12 years, but my strong ties to Boyacá, my mother’s homeland, led me to see an opportunity. While Bogotá’s PET recycling market was highly competitive, Boyacá was untapped. Tunja, just an hour from Bogotá via a modern highway, provided a strategic advantage—close to the capital but in a less saturated market.Living near the plant allowed me to oversee operations and strengthen relationships with suppliers—recycling centers and cooperatives that previously undervalued PET. By increasing the price I paid, they grew in volume and collection capacity, creating a network of over 100 municipalities.Committed to sustainability, I led recycling education programs in 60+ schools, teaching students the benefits of waste separation at home.I personally delivered processed material to clients in Bogotá, ensuring quality and strengthening business ties.Before launching my project, I spent four years as a Maintenance Manager in the plastics conversion sector, specializing in flexographic printing, extrusion, and high-end machinery installation from Germany, Italy, the U.S., and India. My dedication earned me industry recognition, invitations to trade fairs, and respect from executives at Grupo Plastilene and PVC Gerfor (German Forero).This experience allowed me to build strong industry connections and successfully launch my own project.
