Meeting Akhil Saxena Sir, Vice President- Amazon
It was an absolute pleasure to interact with Akhil Saxena (He/His/Him) Sir, Vice President – APAC, MENA, and LATAM Customer Fulfilment Operations and Worldwide Customer Service, Amazon.
It was great to know that prior to joining Amazon he was Senior Vice President – Supply Chain & Wind EPC Business at KEC International Ltd. and we both were briefly part of the RPG Group.
During this insightful interaction, we gained valuable insights into various aspects of the Supply chain and interesting learnings from his journey across Amazon, RPG, and Unilever .
