What I'm looking for

I seek a leadership role in merchandising/sourcing where I can drive efficient buyer-factory coordination, improve production processes, and contribute to profitable growth in an export-focused company.

I am a merchandising and sourcing professional with over 14 years' experience across knit, woven, sweater and outwear categories, currently serving as Head of Merchandising & Sourcing at Murad Apparels Ltd since September 2022. I have led coordination with international buyers, monitored production progress, resolved production issues promptly, and promoted improved merchandising processes that support company profitability.

My career includes roles at Pinnacle Clothing Inc., Knitwear Creator Ltd., Lakhsma Sweaters Ltd., and Magpie Group, working with major global customers across Europe and North America. I bring leadership, strong buyer-factory coordination, time management, and problem-solving skills to deliver reliable sourcing and merchandising outcomes.
