Description

With over 18 years of experience managing international logistics and distribution across 82 countries, I specialize in transforming and optimizing supply chains for global growth. I help companies scale operations and enter new markets in EMEA, APAC and LATAM, navigating VUCA regulatory environments and complex supply chains.

I design and develop robust distribution networks, creating seamless interfaces between suppliers, distribution channels (including e commerce) and transport operations. Leveraging a trusted regional network of experts, I provide grounded, market specific intelligence to tailor strategies for successful market entry and operational excellence. I partner with businesses to build agile, cost effective distribution networks that align precisely with their global ambitions. Services & Solutions
