About Chris Taylor
As General Manager at Big Lots, I bring over 12 years of expertise in distribution, logistics, and supply chain operations, highlighted by the successful relocation of a 1.3M sq. ft. partially automated facility supporting $1.2B in annual sales. Leveraging skills in automation systems like ASRS and robotic depalletization, we enhanced operational efficiency and achieved 99.8% on-time e-commerce fulfillment. My contributions include leading cross-functional teams to align strategies with performance goals and driving cost efficiencies through key performance metrics. Previously, I spearheaded continuous improvement initiatives to optimize inventory management and implemented Just-In-Time practices. My commitment to operational excellence extends to fostering safety-first cultures and mentoring team members for leadership growth. Dedicated to enabling innovation in the supply chain, I focus on delivering measurable results while addressing the complexities of modern distribution challenges.
