About Josep Mª Cos

I have been a results driven professional throughout my career. From Agrovic to Celsa I have delt with scarce resources to achieve maximum yield for company shareholders.In the businesses I have turned around, I have always managed to find the "jewel" at the heart of an (almost ruined) company. At Saphil, Expofiques, and finnally Distrim SPA, this has been the key to my success. While president of the Spanish Scrap Dealers association, FER, I pushed to improve fair competition legislation. This legislation was highly successful, remains effective today, and has been adopted throughout the EU. I am committed to getting the best market conditions for all buyers, from my Real Estate experience (Cos de Castellnou Cooperative) to my time as an expatriate working with Polish scrap dealers (Celsa Huta Ostrowiec).In my spare time I am growing olive trees to get the elixir of the Mediterranean culture: olive oil.I have always found support and inspiration in my family, my friends, and the different institutions I have learned from and worked with. Among others I have found inspiration in:Whitman's words: http://www.poetryfoundation.org/poem/178711Miro's work: http://www.nga.gov/content/ngaweb/Collection/art-object-page.69660.htmlVerdi's music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zC2cmxEsFnY
