Résumé
Passionate about transforming traditional businesses into customer-centric ones with efficient retail and merchandise operations driven by innovation with sustainability in mind.

I constantly improve business finances with remarkable customer experience, innovation, robust category management and operational excellence.
My achievement includes restructuring to turn into a highly profitable Private Brand business unit at E. Leclerc, implementing a customer innovation and sustainability direct sourcing hub at Carrefour, and recently helping Toys "R" Us to launch their strategic private brand sourcing office and then run strategic customer-centricity transformation programs to adapt their merchandise and retail operations to the 2023 regulation & customers' aspirations.
