Testimonials

Fernanda Whitaker, as Trade Commissioner, Canada Consulate São Paulo (1999-2014) “I had the opportunity - and pleasure - to work with Paola on different occasions. A trusted business partner, Paola (and her team at Mandala Group) consistently delivers high quality service and results, most often exceeding our high expectations.”

Mike Bowes, Managing Director at Associated Manufacturing, New Brunswick, Canada “We retained Paola to act as a matchmaker for a business trip to Brazil - focusing on extractive industries. Paola was highly professional with an excellent understanding of our needs. She was able to identify suitable target matches and to arrange meetings with decision-makers within the target companies. She assisted in the meetings and brought a high degree of credibility and depth to our efforts. A superlative job well done - we recommend her highly. She displayed an excellent understanding of the local business culture and the needs of Canadian firms seeking to enter the Brazilian market.”
