Who This Is Built For

Patrick works with a focused set of industries where he can have the most impact — brands where supply chain is a competitive advantage, not a back-office afterthought.

E-commerce and direct-to-consumer brands that have outgrown their current fulfillment setup and need experienced leadership to scale without breaking.

🍽️

Foodservice

Food and beverage operators navigating complex cold chain logistics, multi-channel distribution, and the margin pressures unique to perishable products.

🛒

CPG Brands

Consumer packaged goods companies launching into retail or managing the complexity of omnichannel distribution across DTC, wholesale, and foodservice.

Startups & Early-Stage

High-growth companies that need executive-caliber operations leadership before they're ready to hire a full-time COO.

Private Equity & VC

Portfolio companies that need rapid operational improvement or interim leadership during transitions, acquisitions, or turnarounds.
