Business Development Manager
at Gava Forwarding LLC
Location :
United Arab Emirates - Dubai
I'm entrusted with end-to-end leadership for Air, Sea, and Road freight services, both imports and exports. My multicultural team leadership ensures exceptional customer service.
I've had the privilege of attending prominent exhibitions such as Beauty, Big 5, and Gulf Food, where I achieved remarkable sales success. In the year 2021 alone, I managed to generate AED 1.06 million in revenue with an impressive gross profit margin of 11.5%
I successfully launched the balikbayan service in the Philippines and Lebanon via the Gava Forwarding book's GBOX app. Efficient project systematization, including backend, application, and retail deliveries, were pivotal.
Strategically, I increased retail sales by AED 8, 000 monthly (850 empty boxes), executed impactful social media campaigns, and optimized warehouse operations, increasing capacity, reducing costs, and boosting customer satisfaction in logistics
In terms of warehouse management, I took the initiative to declutter and reorganize our inventory, implementing innovative storage solutions. These efforts not only increased storage capacity but also led to a reduction in operating costs, ultimately enhancing customer satisfaction.
In leadership, I've devised vision, strategy, and sales plans for Air and Sea freight success. My ability to source and close deals, conduct market research, and offer business consultation exceeded commercial objectives. I've managed CRM, marketing, branding, and excelled in multicultural leadership.
Notably, I've traveled extensively across the UAE, where I've excelled in a multicultural environment. My leadership in these settings has consistently yielded excellent results, driving us closer to our operational goals.
These responsibilities and achievements collectively demonstrate my expertise in leadership, business development, and strategic planning, all of which have been integral to the success of our freight services.
