Jennings, an ardent believer in metals and waste recycling, stated: “We have an extensive pipeline of opportunities, but our core strength comes from our people and their commitment to building shareholder value through their diverse backgrounds in mergers and acquisitions, real estate, legal, finance, capital markets, and engineering. The Panamera team possesses some of the strongest skill sets and connections across all segments of the industry. Our projections reflect a 100% increase in current revenue and assets in the first full year of operation.”
