15+ Years in Full-Package Manufacturing If you need: • A reliable apparel supplier • Help sourcing fabrics or trims • Someone familiar with BOMs & Tech Packs • A professional to fix supplier communication problems • Structure in your purchasing process • Support managing overseas manufacturers You’re in the right place. I have over 15 years of experience inside full-package garment manufacturing companies, leading purchasing and product development coordination. I have managed annual purchasing volumes up to $2.8M and worked directly with international suppliers across fabrics, trims, yarns, chemicals, packaging, and finished garments. I specialize in: ✔ Apparel & Fabric Sourcing ✔ Multi-Categories Supplier Research & Qualification (Alibaba & Direct Factories) ✔MRP, consumption and demand ✔ Sample Coordination (Proto, Fit, PP) ✔ Supplier Restructuring & Communication Systems ✔ Purchase Order Management & Inventory Planning ✔ Cost Negotiation & Partial Delivery Planning I have worked in environments where raw material delays, lack of supplier accountability, and process gaps were affecting production — and part of my role was to improve those systems. I bring structure, follow-up discipline, and clear communication. If your supplier situation feels messy, slow, or unclear — I can help organize it. Let’s build a reliable sourcing and supplier system for your brand.
