About

Quality Assurance and Supplier Audit specialist with 20+ years in soft goods (apparel, fashion accessories, home textiles) and Agri‑products (Hass avocados, spices, sisal fiber, seafood) across Eastern Africa. Supporting international buyers and brands to verify product quality, supplier capability, and compliance before shipment.

What can be done for you:

Supplier audit: compliance, technical, GMP, ethical, mold‑prevention and factory‑existence audits for garment and soft‑goods factories.
Product compliance & inspections: fabric, in‑line, mid‑production, final random, piece‑to‑piece and container loading inspections according to AQL and your tech pack.
Pre‑production support: PPMs, pattern and grading checks, sample checks (proto, fit, size‑set, PP, TOP/shipping), and production follow‑up from cutting to packing.

Core strengths:

Deep understanding of apparel production: GMP layout, pre‑production, cutting, embroidery, fusing, sewing, laundry, finishing, pre‑final and final, loading and OCR.
Acceptance sampling, control charts, process control, 5S and Lean Six Sigma collaboration to reduce defects without sacrificing output.
Clear, timely reporting: inspection reports, NCRs and practical recommendations your factory team can act on quickly.

Ideal clients:

Brands, retailers and importers of apparel/soft goods who need an independent QA expert in East Africa.
eCommerce/marketplace sellers who need reliable inspection and factory audit support before booking or shipping stock.
