## About

```text
At MajidAl Futtaim, I supported food department operations across stock availability, replenishment, product standards and customer service. As Deputy Store Manager – Food Department, I kept fresh-food department waste below 4%, compared with 5% the previous year, and championed turning pineapple peels into pineapple brew.

At Kenya Medical SuppliesAuthority, I supported procurement, warehouse and distribution workflows using SAP systems and WMS, including goods receiving, stocktaking, dispatch verification and vehicle monitoring. I also spearheaded a warehousing automation project at JKUAT Tech Expo 13.0, which won under SDG 9 – Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure.
