ABOUT SUSAN ZAMBRANO
As a Purchasing Agent at Torrid, I apply my 15+ years of procurement experience and my project procurement management certification to handle corporate purchasing and special projects, and to assist accounts payable. I have a strong background in retail packaging, retail marketing, and food production, with an emphasis on raw materials with short shelf life and food grade oils. I am fluent in Spanish and proficient in MS Suite, SAP, and Lawson. I have a proven track record of reducing inventory losses, developing supply contracts, and negotiating prices with overseas vendors, resulting in significant cost savings and efficiency improvements. I am passionate about best practices, policy and procedures, inventory control, and performance management. I enjoy working with and training diverse teams and collaborating with internal and external stakeholders to achieve optimal outcomes.
