As a supplier I only have the chance to work, out of those 5, with Mr Vattakandy and Mr Varghese only. I can confirm that both of them are absolutely brilliant! I wish you could win this award to thank all the daily fantastic job you do. Nicolas from Bragard.

As an independant supplier I have known Rajan Vattankandy for some 14 years and without any doubt he is the most professional procurement manager I have ever work for. His professionalism is of the very highest order, always very approachable, makes very even handed decisions when necessary. I cannot recommended Mr Vattakandy highly enough. It is always a professional / business pleasure to deal with him and what seperates him from other candidates is, his 101% dedication to his job whilst maintaining an excellent working relationship with his suppliers such as me. I would not like to do his annual work review as he must score 10 out 10 every time on all the skills which make him the very best of the best procement managers

Mr. Vattakandy Rajan?s perfection and loyalty to his work speaks of his qualities. He has all the good qualities of a Manager whom any Company would like to have on its fold. He has an excellent work record and his elevation to the post of Regional Materials Manager through different positions needs no mention that he is the best deserving candidate. The proposal of his name to Guinness Book World records itself is an ample justification to confer this award on him. I wish him all success.
