Background

About Gerald Vandenberg

As a senior food industry executive and customer success executive, I bring a forward thinking and proactive approach to ‘out of the box’ solutions that have cultivated in over 25 years of progressive success in roles ensuring customer success. My 16 years with Loblaws is one example of what I am purposefully driven to bring to organizations, as it speaks to the fact that throughout my roles in operations, merchandising, procurement and overseeing business units, my clear focus, analytical mind and keen operational insight have generated superior financial results and customer loyalty in the businesses I have been a part of. I have helped clients build their organizational structure, improve merchandising processes, develop private label products, and most importantly ensure our services and solutions provide value realization, thus generating customers for life.
