ABOUT FLORIAN AKERMANN

I excel at thinking on my feet, which means, I am usually one step ahead—that’s where things get interesting. I help businesses achieve success by outpacing the competition. With over 10 years of experience in business development, technology, and sales for both B2B and B2C customers, I bring a unique perspective, along with strong negotiation and communication skills, enabling me to successfully lead projects and teams internationally. As Head of E-Commerce & Drugstore at Delica, I lead a team of nine driving profitable expansions for Migros-Industrie products. My role as Head Buyer at Amazon, managing several categories including hot beverages and confectionary, provided invaluable insights into business operations, processes and product management. And, as a business development consultant for Trello, and in my work for Germany Trade & Invest, I’ve helped companies expand abroad, implementing strategies based on market insights. Through my work with international teams, I’ve developed strong intercultural literacy and an understanding of global markets. A natural leader, I’m adept at fostering relationships with executive stakeholders, building long-term partnerships, and creating an environment that encourages employee engagement, collaboration and constructive feedback.
