Publio F De La Rosa [LION] open networker

My career started with my family business in the food distribution in the Dominican Republic.
In 1978 I moved to New York City where I worked for News World Communications in New York as their circulation manager.
In 1983 from New York, we headed to South Florida where I founded Eden Floral Farms, one of the top 20 flower importers in the USA.
While at Eden, we created the brand 5 STAR FLOWERS sold in some of the top markets by wholesale distributors of fresh cut flowers in the USA and Canada.

We also have taken custody in a farm anchored project, GALAXY farms, a global marketers of fresh cut flowers. With headquarters Miami and other offices in Colombia, Ecuador, the Dominican Republic and Costa Rica.
