• Support supply and demand planning using historical sales, retailer forecasts, and upcoming production requirements
• Coordinate with 3PLs, warehouses, vendors, and other operational partners on open issues and inbound/outbound inventory movements
• Maintain clear operational trackers, SOPs, and reporting across orders, inventory, freight, and outstanding issues
