In order to present Protact convincingly, the Business Development Manager formulates a concrete value proposition for every client. Ultimately, the objective is to convince brand owners and retailers of the advantages of Protact in such a way, that ‘can makers’ will eventually start asking for this product themselves.

Tata Steel’s customers are located all over the world. The Business Development Manager frequently visits these clients.
