The Guy Behind The Guy. How Peter Morales Uses Food and Wine to Lift Others Up.

MJ’s Guest today is a renaissance man! He comes from an executive background, a wine importer, a business owner, and is dedicated to global humanitarian support, a Lehigh graduate, Peter Morales. His career began in retail and operations management at Johnson & Johnson, Grand Metropolitan (now Diageo), and Peerless Importers. In 1998, Peter opened his own worldwide business consulting company, Peter Andrew LLC, which specializes in international beverages. After taking on a project with South Africa, where he successfully developed plans to market wines to the United States, Morales jumped into the importing business, and started his company, 57 Main Street Imports. Peter's latest venture is Black Hawk Imports founded in 2014.  On this week’s episode, MJ and Peter discuss his childhood in the Caribbean, getting an education in the sciences, his trips to Africa, and how everything is marketing. A huge thank you to Peter Morales! Check out his Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/peter-morales-8106325/This episode’s in studio wine:Smoke Eater First Due Red Pinotage 2018 South African Red WineSmoke Eater All Hands White Pinot Grigio 2018 Peramo Anniversario Bianco Peramo Anniversario Rose Vergelegen DNA 2019 _____________________________________________________________Until next time, cheers to the mavericks, philosophers, deep thinkers, and wine drinkers! Don’t forget to subscribe and be sure to give The Black Wine Guy Experience a five-star review on whichever platform you listen to.For insider info from MJ and exclusive content from the show sign up at Blackwineguy.comFollow MJ @blackwineguy Thank you to our sponsor: Thank you to our sponsor: Taub Family Selections.
