I am a Supply Chain professional with 15 years experience in Pharmaceutical Supply Chain including 9 years in Asia Pacific. I have worked in England, France, Australia and Singapore, in factories and in global and local headquarters.
My experience gave me a full vision and understanding of the Global Supply Chain from purchasing to distribution. I acquired operational management experience in a factory and Regional management exposure serving for 6 years as Head of Supply Chain Asia Pacific.
Although my expertise is focused on the Life Science sector, I believe I can adapt to any type of industry because the Pharmaceutical industry has amongst the most stringent regulations and numerous constraints. To name a few:
- Transport: dangerous goods, inflammables, dry, refer and customised transport,
- Production: long chemical production campaigns, high volumes pharma production, liquids, solids, injectables, and freeze dried products,
- Warehousing: FDA and local government inspections, absolute traceability of all goods, waste management, segregation of items and different storage zones.
Tired of seeing (and drinking) poor quality over-priced French wine in Asia we decided to create Jean Cluna Pte Ltd.
We import quality French wine at very reasonable price (probably 50% cheaper than competition).
Most of our wines are rated 88 or over by R. Parker, wine spectator, wine enthusiast etc... and we sell them at the price of Chilean or Australian housepours.
Our main targets are the Hotels, Restaurants and Clubs although we cater for Bars and nightclubs as well. We also work with individuals for weddings, parties or bulk orders.
Based in Singapore we are looking for opportunities to expand to other countries in Asia or middle east.
