Discover an experienced consultant for your business success!
With 10 years of expertise in Purchasing & Development Project Management, including 9 years in China, I have collaborated with over 10 brands, including 5 prestigious luxury ones.
My analytical and proactive mindset has enabled me to lead international teams for flawless operations. I even supervised the POS display launch for the Gucci Make-up brand (developments, productions, and installations) from China, before settling in Paris in 2022 and creating GSC Solutions.
As a versatile Visual Merchandising specialist, I perfectly blend Marketing and Production. I can efficiently lead product developments, respecting deadlines and budgets.
My collaborations with renowned companies such as Gucci, Burberry, Chopard, and Tudor have instilled in me the qualitative requirements essential for brand image. I am also mindful of eco-responsibility challenges for sustainable products.
With language skills in English and Chinese, I am the ideal link between Design & Marketing departments, production factories in Europe and Asia, and warehouses for your products.
Entrust me with the complete supervision of your Merchandising supply chain, and together, we will make your business thrive!
