Unique Characteristics in Latin America

The unique characteristics of doing business in Latin America revolve around import regulations that differ from country to country. Latin America, is not a one size fits all region, you really have to understand the regulations in each country to develop the best possible supply chain for the customers in that country. Sometimes you're able to set up hubs that are located in places that are central in Latin America, and also enjoy some favorable reciprocal type of relationships with certain countries."

In 2008/2009, the banking industry experienced tremendous turmoil. During a recent major West Coast-East Coast bank acquisition, North America's most extensive distribution system for financial services was created. As one of America's largest private employers, the resulting company is now more than 279,000 members strong. Procurement Operations Manager, Alex Mesanza, is part of that team.

Alex' current role in the organization is to lead centralized procurement functions -- a position that makes him responsible for the consolidated purchasing of goods and services that support the East Coast operations. In addition to that responsibility, Alex also provides strategic and tactical direction to integration teams tasked with successful consolidation of operations.
