Haris served as Business Development Manager for Deceuninck, focusing on global market analysis with an emphasis on the LATAM region.

Haris began his project at Deceuninck’s regional HQ in Turkey, where he conducted a global market analysis to assess market size and identify priority countries. He then moved to Latin America, collaborating with local managers and stakeholders to deepen market research and rebuild client trust. Haris also developed a market potential model for LATAM, outlined a long-term growth strategy, and presented his recommendations to the CEO and board.

By creating a structured approach to assess market potential, Haris gained valuable insights into multinational decision-making. Perhaps most importantly, the project helped clarify his career direction toward international trade: “The PAF program exceeded my expectations, providing excellent support, mentorship, and training. The on-the-ground experience in LATAM and APAC inspired me to launch my own export business, leveraging the networks and market knowledge I built during my PAF project.”
