  • Maintain a steady flow of inventory by partnering with distribution centers and suppliers to align delivery schedules with production needs.
  • Promptly address supplier issues to minimize disruptions in production and maintain performance standards.
  • Drive high-impact process improvement projects while balancing daily operational demands.
  • Collaborate with teammates to ensure that every box is complete and all ingredients are procured without substitution issues.
