Who we are
Becky Lombardo
Becky has led supply chain teams servicing high growth, omnichannel retail businesses. Her experience spans fast fashion, luxury goods, beauty, homeware and food. She has worked with a number of different retail fulfilment models both domestic and international – direct to consumer, drop ship, concession and rental.
Working with high growth brands including Arcadia, Asos, Dunelm and MatchesFashion, she has extensive experience in balancing the needs of high growth in the short-term with a medium- to long-term strategic plan. She has worked across multiple markets – UK, US, China and EU.
Becky has developed and implemented supply chain strategies involving global network design, 3PL selection and renegotiations, organisational design, team reorganisations and development, cost reduction initiatives, new service implementation, service proposition reviews and duty efficiency initiatives. She has a data-led, customer-first approach to change management. Becky has also successfully led turn-around scenarios delivering improvement in both cost base and service KPI’s.
With extensive experience in managing 3PL carrier, fulfilment and freight partners, Becky has an acute awareness of the strategic importance of correct partner selection and contractual terms to help support growth. She has managed multiple selection processes from RFP to implementation. She has also successfully negotiated and renegotiated 3PL contracts with bespoke clauses to support specific business requirements whilst delivering cost reductions and supporting growth.
With global supply chain come the inevitable challenges with cross border trade and goods movements. Becky has experience in establishing and managing a bonded facility and all the implications for that on other goods movements. She has wide experience in managing cross-border trade, particularly the challenges with moving high value goods (clothing, footwear, accessories, homeware and fine jewellery) into the major markets – US, Far East, Middle East, EU and Australia. She established and operated one of the first RGR networks to maximise duty efficiency for EU goods being sold into the EU via a UK warehouse.
