Ariola Veliu
@ariolaveliu
I lead purchasing operations, inventory planning, supplier coordination, and international logistics for consumer brands.
What I'm looking for
At Electromagic, I lead end-to-end purchasing for assigned brands, using sales trends, forecasts, stock levels, and client feedback to plan orders and maintain inventory. I coordinate suppliers, logistics partners, sales, commercial, and marketing teams to support timely deliveries, pricing, promotions, customs clearance, and performance reporting.
Previously, I managed RFQs, RFPs, supplier evaluation, sourcing, and end-to-end delivery at Elelco HORIZON Selfcare, and purchasing operations, invoice verification, vendor reconciliation, and import/export documentation at KRACO. My finance background from FARMATECH strengthens my approach to cost control, reporting, inventory analysis, and data-driven procurement decisions.
