• Product & Packaging Improvement: Support regional business development by recommending new product concepts, packaging structure/design enhancements, and cost-optimization initiatives.
• Export Sales Operations & SCM: Oversee export delivery datelines, monitor aging accounts receivable, track inventory/PSI movements (preventing over/under-stocking), and handle sales progress reporting.
