About Cherish Cook

With a unique blend of buyer experience at top retailers and strategic vendor management at Amazon, I bring a 360° perspective to the retail and CPG landscape. I’ve sat on both sides of the table negotiating as a buyer and executing as a vendor lead which gives me a distinct edge in driving growth, solving operational challenges, and aligning promotional strategy with business objectives.At Amazon, I lead high-impact initiatives across Grocery and CPG, managing vendor relationships, optimizing profitability, and scaling promotional programs that drive measurable results. I specialize in translating data into strategy, bridging cross-functional teams, and ensuring every initiative from supply chain execution to merchandising is built for performance at scale.I’m passionate about building structure in fast-paced environments, uncovering whitespace opportunities, and helping brands win on the digital shelf. With deep knowledge across eCommerce, retail, and supplier dynamics, I thrive at the intersection of insight and execution.
