4 people have recommended Yuriy

"Yuriy is a very talented and hard-working plant / operations manager with a strong level of expertise within

the commercial print and critical business mail spaces. He is especially good at engendering the loyalty and

interactive communication of those who report to him.and has effectively managed print production

operations ranging from 100 to 150 direct and indirect reports. One of the attributes which separates Yuriy

from other similarly-situated plant managers is his ability to both identify with and understand the needs of

his clients and find solutions which fulfill those needs. In addition, Yuriy is very capable of getting out of the

plant to work directly with both the sales team and interface with the client at either the client site or while

hosting them at his plant. I wholly endorse Yuriy Sukhostavskiy as a capable and interactive plant production

leader and operations manager as someone to run a plant or multiple plants within any print, packaging or

plastics discipline!"
