Silicon Valley-based firm announced Founder/CEO Leslie Magsalay-Zeller transforms Pooki’s Mahi® manufacturing into a “Digital Beverage Supply Chain” by enforcing a Just-In-Time (JIT) operations model for an FDA certified facility. The technology executive integrated platforms using IP owned by Magsalay-Zeller, resulting in over 75% savings in logistics and warehouse management costs.

Founder/CEO Leslie Magsalay-Zeller manages several end-to-end manufacturing pilots to assess the new manufacturing facilities using vetted suppliers in Pooki’s Mahi improved supply chain. The purpose of the manufacturing pilots is to continue Pooki’s Mahi “Digital Beverage Supply Chain” transformation by automating processes with existing technology partners.

Results from several manufacturing tests impact the Company’s “Digital Beverage Supply Chain” roadmap. Pooki’s Mahi® rigorous roadmap planning process confirms the next wave of improvements in technology, brand discovery, and creative processes with existing partners. The goal is to continue improving Pooki’s Mahi “Digital Beverage Supply Chain” by integrating brand discovery with the supply chain. Pooki’s Mahi plans on using existing technology partners.

Pooki’s Mahi Founder/CEO Leslie Magsalay-Zeller explains, “Pooki’s Mahi Digital Beverage Supply Chain roadmap is focused on integrating supply chain with brand discoverability. The MeowHattan Project is focused on rebuilding Pooki’s Mahi supply chain - operations, logistics, sourcing materials, supply base management, inventory management - using newer manufacturing facilities. Komo Kitty℠ is services to incubate, launch, and grow Pooki’s Mahi brands on existing sales channels using digital marketing. Rigorous roadmap planning drives improvements in technology, brand discovery, and creative processes with existing technology partners. I know what I’m delivering to our customers later this year.”

“I audit Pooki’s Mahi supply chain performance, improve processes, and immediately replace under-performing suppliers or vendors. Firms lacking systems architecture expertise or public APIs will never meet Pooki’s Mahi technology and supply chain requirements. Pooki’s Mahi executives have a strong technical background, and built integrations between Pooki’s Mahi platforms managing sales, inventory, and product catalog for large retailers using cloud-based technologies,” continues Founder/CEO Leslie Magsalay-Zeller.

“Converting new customers online is much easier for Pooki’s Mahi because we know our products, customer profiles that convert and have a baseline understanding of what it takes to convert new customers into repeat customers. I analyze big datasets looking for buying patterns, zip codes, interests, education, disposable income, product discovery journey in Pooki’s Mahi demographic market areas. Big data analysis and customer feedback drive Pooki’s Mahi roadmap,” says the Silicon Valley technology executive.

Pooki’s Mahi® Founder/CEO Leslie Magalay-Zeller experienced a massive 2018 supply chain FUBAR. Previous suppliers used to manufacture Pooki’s Mahi wrapped 100% Kona coffee pods went out of business without notifying customers like Pooki’s Mahi. Egregious behavior from multiple suppliers resulted in irreparable harm to Pooki’s Mahi and Founder/CEO Leslie Magsalay-Zeller. Pooki’s Mahi does not tolerate manufacturing facilities losing several hundred pounds of inventory, suppliers selling Pooki’s Mahi data to competitors, or firms unable to meet commitments documented in the purchase orders. Pooki’s Mahi has a non-negotiable pay for performance requirement.

Founder/CEO Leslie Magsalay-Zeller accelerated replacing under-performing suppliers in Pooki’s Mahi supply chain. Pooki’s Mahi terminated contracts with over 95% of suppliers used to manufacture Pooki’s Mahi wrapped 100% Kona coffee pods. The Silicon Valley executive used the 2018 supply chain FUBARs as an opportunity to reset Pooki’s Mahi operations. Founder/CEO Leslie Magsalay-Zeller focused on building Pooki’s Mahi “Digital Beverage Supply Chain.”

Pooki’s Mahi “Digital Beverage Supply Chain” is inspired by Founder/CEO Leslie Magsalay-Zeller time in public Silicon Valley-based technology companies. Integrating marketing and sales activities carefully to operations, and analyzing big data sets collected is a common practice widely used to measure the health of the supply chain. Interpreting the metrics, accountability, and scorecards drive conversations. Operational metrics like conversation rates by channel or number of repeat customers indicate the strength of the supply chain and health of the business. Revenue and consistent new product launches drive sales channel behavior.
