About Vladyslav
I take QSR and F&B brands into new countries and build the systems that run them there. As Head of International Development at Lviv Croissants, a Ukrainian café and bakery chain, I led its expansion across seven countries in Europe, the US and Asia, from market research and financial modeling to franchise agreements and launch. Unlike a pure strategy consultant, I also build the operational backbone, Odoo POS and ERP, automated sales reporting, and live multi-location dashboards, so you get both the plan and the systems to run it
