Storcan, a career and heart choice fueled by passion

Challenges abound in Izzy's daily life, who became the 1st Sales Director in Storcan's history.

"I love seeing how an idea becomes a solution, a tangible piece of equipment," he says enthusiastically. For Izzy, it's this ability to create something durable for his clients that motivates him every day. His face lights up as he shares a particular anecdote of a client where years later, he still sees the physical result of an idea and its positive influence.
"Keep paddling"
An expression that resonates deeply with him. "Like in a canoe, you keep paddling and moving forward," he explains. This mentality of perseverance and action, inherited from his parents, accompanies him at every step of his career, reminding him of the importance of continuing to move forward, even in difficult times. For Izzy, inaction is more detrimental than action, and it's by overcoming his fears and looking forward that he finds the greatest success.
Always presentable, punctual, and organized, Izzy fully embodies the value of professionalism at Storcan. "I'm always ready just in case," he says.
