“I first met with Peter Stromquist in 2009, upon the advice of my local legal counsel. Peter was described to me as a “go to guy”, to help with strategy, positioning, and financial advice to help my small company grow.

He quickly identified a potential partner for national growth; that party gave us a mandate to build the store chain to a modest number of our own prior to their jumping in to help us become a national force in retailing.

Though Peter cautioned me in  advance that finding small investors would be difficult, he stood by us and kept  working on the financing angle while guiding me on a strategic basis whenever he  was called upon, and whatever the mission. He helped with store leases and found  new ‘partners’, including a great contractor for build-outs. He was available  whenever I needed him, and worked diligently and cheerfully on our project,  through many ups and downs. Several months ago, he identified a new prospective  partner, who could not only invest financially, but also supplement our  operating and board team with substantial experience gained in positions with  very large retail chains. We’re now poised for fast-track growth and a good  portion of our being positioned for the next stage for our stores is due to the work of Peter Stromquist. I recommend him highly.

“Peter was thrust into a very difficult, political situation and through his diplomacy and people skills was able to create as harmonious working environment. Once that was accomplished, he then showed his leadership skills and intelligence by leading the Europe/ME/Africa division to an operating and net profit.  This was the first profit for UPI in twenty years.”
