From the beginning, Jon and Trent’s team brought clarity and direction to a large-scale terminal development in Ivory Coast. Their leadership, professionalism, and ability to offer innovative solutions gave the project a strong foundation. As the work progressed, their personal investment in the outcome became clear — we not only completed the build successfully, but also formed a lasting professional connection built on trust and mutual respect.
Working with Jon and team offered a fresh perspective on what our operations could become. He challenged our assumptions and helped us reframe how we think about equipment and efficiency. His insight sparked new thinking across our team, and I’m excited to see where that leads. His input continues to shape the way we approach future projects.
