Summary

B2B sales professional with over 2 years of experience within major international consumer goods groups. I built my career at Les Laboratoires Biopharma, a leading African cosmetics company, then at Basel Holdings, official distributor of COTY brands (Adidas, David Beckham) — a dual experience that trained me in the standards demanded by international brands. My territory spans Cameroon's four largest economic hubs: Douala, Yaoundé, Bafoussam, and Moungo. There, I've built an active network of 250+ retail outlets, pharmacies, and para-pharmacies, and I know strategic markets like Mboppi, the largest market in Central Africa, inside out — giving me direct access to the country's biggest wholesalers and distributors. This combination — the rigor of major groups plus deep, first-hand knowledge of local terrain and distribution networks — allows me to be operational immediately on any new territory, with no learning curve required. The result: the largest deal ever signed in Basel Holdings' history, closed single-handedly, on my very first mission in a city where I wasn't even based.
