ABOUT DEEPAK THOMAS
I have over 10 years experience in managing supply chain and logistics transformation initiatives in the F&B and E-commerce sector. Currently, I work at McCain Foods in the Supply Chain Technology team. Previously, I have worked for Amazon.com, fast-food brands KFC, Pizza Hut, Krispy Kreme and casual dining brands like Cheesecake Factory, Shake Shack, PF Chang\'s, among others.I have an MBA from IIM Calcutta (India\'s oldest management institute and alma mater of Indira Nooyi, the first woman CEO of Pepsi Co), a B. Tech in Production Engineering from NIT Calicut and hold both PMP and CSCP certifications. My passion is to drive process improvement projects that enhance customer satisfaction and deliver results. I have a proven track record of implementing a Sales and Operations Planning process, designing an in-house Material Requirement Planning system, and improving inventory turnover and supply chain service levels.Outside work, I\'m a science fiction and fantasy author with my book \"Born to be King\" reaching the top 10 bestsellers list on Amazon India. With these books, I share the beauty of Indian culture and history with the world. Solving tough challenges starts with breaking them into simple problems and measurable goals, then bringing together a team with the right expertise and working closely with users to create solutions that truly fit their needs.Cooperation matters more to me than competition, and I hold diversity and resilience as core principles—especially the willingness to fail, learn, and improve.Learning new skills, sharing ideas, and collaborating with people who align with my mission are constants in my work.
