Connecting the dots: I help FMCG companies, investors and commercial teams turn market, consumer and sales data into clear business strategy and growth decisions.
Over more than 28 years with Heineken International, Almarai, Mondelez, Savola Foods and YouGov, I have led business strategy, market research, consumer insights and revenue growth work across Saudi Arabia, the GCC, the Levant, North Africa, Central Asia and Turkey. I combine hands-on commercial leadership with data science and predictive modelling, so the analysis ends in a decision, not a debate.
