Simone Pio S.
Supply Chain Manager for Scaling DTC Brands
If your brand is growing fast but your supply chain is starting to crack โ stockouts, delayed shipments, no visibility, cash tied up in the wrong inventory โ that's exactly where I come in. I'm Simone, a Supply Chain Manager specializing in end-to-end operations for DTC e-commerce brands. I hold an MSc in Industrial Engineering from Politecnico di Milano (#1 technical university in Italy) and an Executive Master in Supply Chain Management from SDA Bocconi (#1 Business School in Europe). Over the past 4 years I've built and managed supply chain operations for brands doing $10M+ in revenue, growing 50%+ year over year. Here's what that looked like in practice: โ Managed 3 suppliers in China end-to-end: negotiations, production follow-up, quality control and inbound coordination โ Designed full supply chain networks from scratch: freight forwarders, 3PL warehouses, last-mile delivery across multiple markets โ Built demand planning and replenishment systems that reduced stockout frequency by 30โ40% โ Improved inventory turnover and freed up working capital previously stuck in excess stock โ Led a team of 6, introduced processes and documentation that made operations run without me in the room โ Reported directly to founders with clear visibility on risks, performance and action plans I don't do strategy decks. I get into your operations, identify what's breaking, and fix it fast. Fluent in English, Spanish and Italian. Based in Barcelona, operating globally. Let's talk if you're ready to build a supply chain that scales with you.
