Background

About Saransh Bhatnagar

I am a supply chain professional with over three years of combined experience, currently serving as a Supply Chain Replenishment Analyst at Loblaws, one of Canada’s largest and most recognized retailers. My role involves overseeing critical supply chain processes for fresh produce categories, optimizing inventory management, and ensuring seamless operations across multiple distribution centers. Throughout my career, I've built a strong foundation in managing complex supply chain operations, driving efficiency, and maximizing profitability. I have successfully managed large-scale replenishment efforts, including overseeing the movement of over cases daily and managing $500K in inventory across Eastern Canada. Additionally, I’ve maintained a service level of 94.4% for 60+ SKUs with highly perishable shelf life by ensuring smooth inbound and outbound flow for 5 distribution centers in 3 provinces. My expertise extends to strategic planning, where I’ve analyzed historical data and product-level forecasts to identify trends based on seasonality, customer behavior, and market shifts. This data-driven approach has enabled me to optimize replenishment strategies, reduce inventory holding costs, and drive sales growth. I also focus on fostering strong relationships with vendors, ensuring effective communication, and leading process improvements to enhance KPIs. Previously, I gained invaluable experience as a Supply Chain Intern and Coordinator in India, where I honed my skills in inventory management, vendor relations, and operational efficiency. I hold a postgraduate degree in Supply Chain Management and International Business Management, equipping me with the tools and knowledge necessary to thrive in this dynamic field. At Loblaws, I continue to leverage my expertise to deliver impactful results, driving supply chain excellence, optimizing processes, and contributing to the overall success of the organization. I am passionate about continuous improvement in supply chain management and always eager to explore new opportunities to apply my skills and make a positive impact.
