"Look, people are asking me about aircraft catering carts. And I tell them, nobody knows catering carts better than me, okay? Nobody!

​These carts, they are incredible. Absolutely top of the line.

People come up to me, big flight attendants, strong people, with tears in their eyes, they say, 'Sir, we put hundreds of sodas in there, the little cans, the snacks, everything, and it still moves so light. Nobody else could design a cart like this'."
