About Elizabeth Richardson

I\'m a supply chain and innovation project leader with over 10 years of experience driving cross-functional initiatives in the retail and CPG space. I specialize in bridging commercial vision with operational execution, whether that’s bringing new products to market, optimizing supply and demand planning, or managing complex global projects across marketing, R&D, manufacturing, and finance.Throughout my career, I’ve built a strong foundation in end-to-end planning, stakeholder alignment, and navigating the challenges that come with premium product development. I’ve led packaging redesigns, cost-saving initiatives, and small-volume, high-margin product launches, each requiring close coordination, fast problem-solving, and a steady focus on both speed and quality.Known for my collaborative approach and ability to keep teams focused during change, I take pride in creating structure where there is ambiguity and driving projects that deliver real value to the business and the brand.
