TM Insight has announced the appointment of Caleb Nicolson, former Chief Supply Chain Officer at Kathmandu, as General Manager in New Zealand.
Caleb Nicolson will lead TM Insight’s operations in New Zealand and work alongside the company’s leadership team to deliver on TM Insight’s strategy to design and deliver world-class supply chain solutions to customers across Australia, New Zealand and Southeast Asia.
Travis Erridge, CEO of TM Insight, is excited to have someone of Caleb’s calibre leading TM Insight’s New Zealand team.
“The acceleration of ecommerce in New Zealand presents an opportunity for local organisations to leapfrog the rest of the world who are challenged with legacy supply chains to quickly scale up and advance their operations,” Travis said.
“Caleb is a recognised global industry leader in supply chain and retail and is best placed to help organisations in New Zealand with their supply chain transformations. His understanding of global best practice supply chain solutions and extensive local market knowledge will ensure organisations can capitalise on the rapid adoption of e-commerce.”
Caleb brings over 20 years of experience in supply chain and retail to TM Insight. Over the last decade, he led the design and delivery of Kathmandu Group’s global supply chain and development of its online capabilities across its $1 billion brands, including Kathmandu, Rip Curl and Oboz Footwear. He was most recently the Chief Supply Chain Officer at Kathmandu.
“Organisations are grappling with the rapid growth in ecommerce, which is challenging many supply chains from a service, capacity and cost level. Many organisations will need to assess their supply chain strategies, redefining and building the required capabilities to exceed customer expectations. I look forward to combining my extensive supply chain, retail, change management and business leadership with TM Insight’s market leading integrated capability in supply chain and property to help customers navigate and deliver success,” Caleb said.
“As a previous client of TM Insight during my tenure at Kathmandu, I was attracted to TM Insight’s unique integrated service offering in supply chain, property and project management, which provided an end-to-end solution for organisations. I am further encouraged by the depth of capability the recent acquisition of XAct Solutions brings and I’m excited to be leading this service offering in the New Zealand market,” he added.
