"Since I joined GCL Group, I've had the opportunity to work on many projects that have involved relocating and designing warehouses as well as distribution centers to handle their growth. These projects required the optimization of picking and packing operations in order to reduce costs and increase productivity for online and mass-market retailers. My strong knowledge of information systems and more specifically of warehouse management and automation systems also gives me the skills to make optimal recommendations to our clients in order to support them in the selection and implementation of the technologies best suited to their needs. As a former supply chain manager in several multinational companies, I am able to understand the reality and challenges faced by today's managers."
