Wemmel, Flemish Region, Belgium
With a career spanning over two decades, I’ve held executive roles across leading food manufacturers (Chiquita, Reckitt, Wonderful Brands) and top-tier retailers (Carrefour, Maxeda), building deep expertise in supply chain, operations, IT, and general management. My passion lies in aligning business strategy with operational excellence—leveraging technology and digital collaboration to drive measurable impact. In 2017, I founded Cadena Consulting to help organizations bridge the gap between strategic vision and supply chain execution. In 2020, I co-founded Streamside, a supply chain IT company behind Streamliner (www.streamliner.cloud)—a platform that enables seamless digital collaboration across supply chain partners. I hold a Civil Engineering degree from VUB Brussels, an MBA from Vlerick Business School, and am a certified Director via Guberna. Having lived and worked across Europe, I now reside in Brussels with my wife and two children.
