I look after the supply of fresh food items from chosen farms and food processing mills on a daily basis.
I have to assess and estimate the quantity that needs to be ordered every day. My experience of procurement has enabled me to make right assessments and ensure that the product is fresh.

Responsible for arranging international suppliers and booking stock online. I was in charge of finding the best quality household items and kitchen appliances at good prices from vendors across the world.
An insured shipment of order from chosen vendors was my responsibility. I had to check stock in store and assess which items needed to be ordered more and which had to be dropped.
Return and repair of stock was also decided with the supplier. It was my duty to return and demand reimbursement for bad stock.

Responsible for planning purchases after comparing prices and checking quality.
I was able to reduce the cost of production through negotiation with buyers and developing a network of regular suppliers.
I was responsible for cost savings and ensuring that the monthly budgets fell significantly.
I reduced the procurement lead times and contributed to swift deliveries with a customer focused approach.
