What I'm looking for

I am seeking senior leadership roles where I can lead supply chain and commercial strategy, scale fresh-produce sourcing and distribution, drive P&L growth, and work within a collaborative, improvement-focused culture.

I am a supply chain and logistics executive with 14 years of hands-on experience across shipping, freight forwarding, and fresh-produce import businesses. I currently lead strategy and operations at Aeden Fruits International, scaling the brand's sourcing, cold chain and commercial footprint.

My background includes leadership roles at Trans Asia Group, Choice Group and Kuehne + Nagel where I drove revenue growth, route development, client acquisition, and end-to-end logistics across sea, air and reefer trades. I am experienced in P&L management, cost optimization, and process governance.

I have led market expansion initiatives, commercial negotiations, and cross-functional teams to deliver volume targets and improved operational efficiency. Notable achievements include expanding TransAsia’s North India trade presence and managing Choice Group’s forwarding and Hyundai Merchant Marine line sales efforts.

I bring a practical, improvement-oriented approach (Six Sigma Green Belt) and a commitment to quality, consistency and scalable growth in competitive fresh produce and logistics markets.
