About Julia

Are you a Food & Beverage brand, distributor, or player looking to boost your marketing and sales strategy?

I can help you with:

- Brand development (positioning, storytelling, identity),
- Sales strategy (activation plan, sales growth, expansion in France and internationally),
- Purchasing and partnerships (negotiations, sourcing, optimization),
- Project management (launches, multi-team coordination, operational steering).

With over 10 years of experience at Moët Hennessy, Casino, Fauchon, Metro, and Lagardère, and a degree from ESSEC, I bring a strategic vision combined with strong product knowledge and a keen sense of gastronomic trends.

My added value: transforming your ambitions into concrete results, through an approach that is creative, analytical, and business-oriented.
