@berylamoloamolo
Senior quality assurance and technical sales professional specializing in ISO-compliant milling, fortification, and market growth.
KenyaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven Quality Assurance and Technical Sales professional with over 15 years of experience across wheat and maize milling, pasta production, food fortification, and food safety management. I’ve led commissioning of milling plants from ground zero, setting up labs, calibrating equipment, and validating process performance while implementing ISO 9001 and ISO 22000 compliant QMS. My work consistently focuses on HACCP, GMP, FSMS, and CAPA-driven improvement, supported by planned internal audits and facility inspections.
In parallel, I translate technical expertise into commercial results—conducting market research, delivering customer training and product demonstrations, coordinating field trials, and strengthening client relationships across East Africa. I’ve successfully penetrated new accounts and spearheaded nationwide food fortification programs, ensuring products meet statutory and internal quality standards while improving traceability and reducing non-conformances.
