About

I’m an MBA graduate and international trade and business development specialist helping nutraceutical and FMCG companies grow in export markets through clear strategy and hands-on execution. I’ve led market expansion across Europe, the USA, and APAC, built and managed distributor and CDMO partnerships, and supported product registrations with local authorities.

My approach is shaped by extensive cross-cultural, on-the-ground experience across three continents - helping me build trust, communicate value, and execute effectively in diverse business environments. I believe the best expertise comes from constant learning through especially through immersive travel, real conversations, and staying close to how business is actually done in each market.

I turn complex market-entry variables (pricing, channel fit, compliance risk, and partner selection) into an executable route to sustainable growth, supporting clients end-to-end: export training and advisory, foreign market research (competition, benchmarking, SWOT/PEST), export strategy, export marketing, international contracts, partner acquisition, and preparation for international fairs.

My mission is to help nutraceutical companies expand internationally with clarity and control. I act as your trusted trade partner, turning complex export challenges into clear decisions and measurable outcomes.

From selecting the right markets and partners to executing a practical go-to-market plan, I help you grow export sales while protecting margins, reducing risk, and building scalable international growth.

An outsourced external sales force is the most effective way to accelerate export results—giving you experienced market development professional without the cost and complexity of building an in-house team. You gain speed, flexibility, and accountable execution, while staying focused on your core business.

Mission

Vision

My vision is to make international expansion in nutraceuticals simpler, safer, and more predictable. Instead of “just shipping overseas,” I want companies to treat export growth as a structured, multi-variable discipline—balancing regulations, claims, labeling, logistics, pricing, channel fit, positioning, and partner selection—so they can scale globally with confidence.

Values

I turn that complexity into a clear plan and an executable route to market.

Structured thinking: decisions based on data, not assumptions.
Commercial realism: pricing and channels must work on the shelf, not only in a spreadsheet.
Integrity & compliance awareness: growth without cutting corners.
High standards for partners: careful qualification, aligned incentives, clear expectations.
Ownership: I stay close to execution and focus on outcomes, not presentations.

Who I help

I work with nutraceutical brands, contract manufacturers, and ingredient suppliers to:

identify the most realistic markets to enter
define a market entry strategy that matches your product and capabilities,
build partner pipelines (distributors, importers, retailers, e-commerce),
and support negotiations, launch planning, and export operations.

My approach is practical: decisions grounded in data, risk-managed execution, and a strong focus on commercial outcomes.
