In Episode 4 of the BORN TO BE A SNOWFIGHTER podcast, Bob and Nick sit down with Jason Whittemore - Executive Vice President of Metal Pless. Jason was the very first member of the Metal Pless sales team, and he's been a key figure in the growth of the company since the early 2010's. Jason started on the road, working with dealers in Ontario. Today Jason manages the AeroPless (airport) and EuroPless (European Operations) divisions or Metal Pless and travels the world, spreading the good news of Metal Pless and our ever-advancing technologies. We hope you enjoy Jason's stories from the Metal Pless "early days." We've come pretty far!
