At JM Baxi & Co., I managed import-export cargo operations and port handling, improving turnaround efficiency by 20%. I also coordinated windmill blade exports for Suzlon initiatives and optimized berthing schedules to reduce delays by 18%.

I managed pre-arrival documentation using logistics systems while maintaining 100% compliance, and prepared Mate's Receipts and stowage plans. I also implemented warehouse inventory tracking that reduced stock variance by 25%.

Earlier, at Spencer’s Retail and Pantaloons Retail Group, I worked across store operations, sales, and inventory. I used Excel, SAP Retail, and a Warehouse Management System (WMS) for reporting, stock control, and order fulfillment.
