Savola formed a senior business development team headed by a Vice President to work on international expansion of the Group. I played a significant role in this team and was responsible for validating the historical accounts of one of the leading snack food companies in Egypt which represented a prime acquisition target for the company. For a period of around three months, the team resided in Cairo and was provided access to all the financials of the target company. After an extensive financial due diligence, a detailed report was prepared by the team recommending not to invest in this company primarily due to its mediocre business performance and insignificant future potential. A presentation was done to the Chairman and the Executive Vice President on the findings and a decision was taken not to pursue with the acquisition. The due diligence was highly applauded by the top management.
• Timely month-end closing: SPCC was usually one of the last units in Savola to close the month. After I took over, SPCC became one of the first units to successfully close their month.

• Resolving problems in Inventory Module: There were usually debates between Production and Finance on the accuracy of monthly raw materials and ink consumption recorded by the Oracle Inventory Module. In order to solve this problem, I invited the Information Systems Department to make a sanity check on the module and subsequently organized a weekly meeting to understand the underlying problems and educate the employees on the module. As a result, the problem was resolved and all the issues were cleared resulting in a saving of around 24 man-hours during each month closing.
• Zakat Requirements : There were old pending issues on Zakat dating back to the periods 1995 - 1998. I took an initiative to solve all of these issues and helped other business units in the packaging division to close all outstanding Zakat requirements.
• Clean-up of Balance Sheet: There were many outstanding uncleared Balance Sheet items such as purchase accruals, refundable deposits, bank reconciliation, accounts payables, non-trade receivables and advances to vendors. I diligently cleaned most of these and suggested adequate provisions for the others.
