Silvestro insight and leadership experiences were crucial to refine our strategic options and access new business opportunities in Australia and in Asia. Silvestro’s exceptional retail experiences, his passion for businesses and his methodical follow-ups are great assets for anyone looking at being serious in retail.

Go! Kidz Group
When you look up the dictionary definition of "expert", you get - "having or involving a great deal of knowledge or skill in a particular area". When you apply this to Silvestro, it seems a little understated. Silvestro's depth of knowledge, experience, expertise and professional network extend way beyond this simple definition. I have had the pleasure of working with him for the last 6 months launching a new food brand, Go! Kidz into the retail sector. Walking into a meeting with Silvestro, you are guaranteed that his relationships, industry respect and credibility will place you in the best possible situation. He is a fantastic person to spend time with, is passionate about great brands and products that have a genuine impact on society. Having Silvestro watch your back is a very comforting position to be in! I couldn't recommend him highly enough.

iCare
Silvestro is a fantastic mentor who has given me the confidence to grow and back myself as a senior leader. He has provided invaluable executive input, insights and sound advice while I have been leading and navigating some tricky periods of strategic change whilst also helping me clarify my long-term career direction. I highly recommend Silvestro as an executive mentor to any individual who wants to achieve a clear focus and accelerate their personal growth.

Little Ripples Wine
If you want a retail guru who specializes in getting results via his industry expertise, creative thinking/problem solving, elite network and a work ethic second to none…. Then I would strongly urge that you get in contact with Silvestro. The services HERO received from Silvestro were world class and I highly recommend Morabito Management Consulting.

Gibson Shop Fitters
We developed a new range of products and a new service offer for retail equipment supply to independent supermarket operators in Australia and needed to communicate this to the c-suite multi-site owner decision makers. Silvestro was able to sense check our strategy, and then secure presentation opportunities with all major groups in our target market. I don't think there is anyone in Australia who has a better developed network of independent supermarket relationships than Silvestro, and if you have a product or service that needs help in finding this market then you can do no better than contacting Silvestro to get it moving.

Darrell Lea Confectionery Company
You would be hard pushed to find someone with the depth of experience that Silvestro has in FMCG retailing, both within Australia and overseas. I have found Silvestro to be an invaluable source of guidance in dealing with industry issues & opportunities, and his advice always comes from a position of experience. Beyond this, and in his mentoring capacity, I have found the discussions relating to my own career development to be incredibly rewarding. I would recommend Silvestro to anyone looking for a mentor who has been there and done it, as opposed to one working from a textbook.

Auckland Airport – New Zealand
Silvestro came across to NZ to share his detailed retailer experience with kiwi brand and shopper marketing managers as part of our BTL agency summit on shopper marketing, Silvestro was a great asset to the summit and a great engaging presenter. Since then, we have also engaged him on other projects given his wealth of retail experience and candid approach. I would highly recommend engaging Silvestro to further understand how various shopper initiatives are perceived from a retailer angle.

Silvestro has an enviable track record of success in retail spanning international markets and channels. I had the opportunity to work with Silvestro as a supplier in Singapore and Australia and have appreciated his candour, focus on change and collaborative engagement with his business partners. An outstanding leader and retailer.
