How Marvin got into retail:

My retail journey started as a sales associate at Foot Locker. Having worked there for a better part of my youth, I knew sales would be my future calling. I now work with companies in both Canada and the US providing professional services to private companies focused on manufacturing and retailing.

What’s the best thing about retail?

Retail is the backbone of our consumer driven economy. Retail is the key channel in getting the increasingly innovative products in our hands.

What does Shelfspace mean to Marvin?

Shelfspace is a forum for leading entrepreneurs to share ideas and drive innovation – to help drive growth in the retail sector.

What’s one thing I would like other retail entrepreneurs to know about me?

I’m an accountant by trade. I’m not your typical accountant!

Marvin’s favourite thing to do:

Traveling - spending time and exploring new places is always a great escape and a chance to live as the locals do. It really gives me a great appreciation for all the different cultures around the world. Favorite memory – biking through the wine country in Tuscany.
