Supply Chain Wizard (SCW) has opened a new UK-Ireland office in London, and a new Latin American office in Miami.
The two newly opened locations are among several new offices worldwide, as Supply Chain Wizard continues to expand its consulting and technology capabilities into additional regions. As its customer base expands and diversifies, the company has seen it fit to undergo a worldwide leadership reorganization to provide its functional expertise and solutions on a global scale.
Hitesh Varambhia has joined Supply Chain Wizard as Country Head of its newly opened UK-Ireland office, and Marcos Buelvas as Principal of the new Latin American office.
Varambhia also serves as Director of Client Success for Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) region, and also is overseeing the Asia-Pacific region expansion on an interim basis.
Supply Chain Wizard offers strategic innovations in products and services targeting serialization and supply chain transformation initiatives, along with a team of expert consultants providing comprehensive support toward cost-effective compliance with serialization mandates and post-go-live operational support.
Both Varambhia and Buelvas have more than 15 years of experience working on complex, global supply chain programs. Prior to joining Supply Chain Wizard, Varambhia provided senior-level consulting services to a variety of companies, including Mars, Inc., Eli Lilly & Company, Novartis, Philip Morris International, F. Hoffman-La Roche Ltd., and UCB Pharma AG. Buelvas spent many years at Deloitte Consulting focused on designing and implementing manufacturing and supply chain transformation efforts, as well as on leading cross-functional manufacturing and supply chain programs. Prior to that, he was a Senior Engineer with the Competitive Operations Group of General Motors.
Varambhia has an M.Sc. in Advanced Manufacturing Systems from Brunel University, London, while Buelvas received his Masters of Engineering in Supply Chain Management from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
“Hitesh and Marcos are welcome additions to our worldwide team of supply chain leaders,” said Evren Ozkaya, Founder and CEO of Supply Chain Wizard. “They have the breadth and depth of experience – as well as technical knowledge – needed to help our customers utilize their supply chains to reap competitive advantages as they move toward compliance with upcoming serialization regulations and the digital supply chain transformation that comes beyond compliance.”
