Previously, I increased divisional revenue by 32% through optimizing LPG distribution networks and improved retention by 58% via home delivery expansion; at Mecure Healthcare Limited, I grew revenue from ₦5.4M to over ₦24.3B while delivering large-scale medical screenings and end-to-end blood collection/logistics with strict quality control.
