About FM Solutions
FMCG is full of great ideas that never make it past the kitchen bench. I’ve spent my career making sure the right ones do.
Over the past 20+ years I’ve taken products from zero to market — shaping recipes, building supply chains, leading category reviews, negotiating distribution, and setting up teams that deliver.
The most recent? Contracted via FM Solutions as General Manager to launch Dilmah Iced Tea in New Zealand and Australia. From concept and production through to commercial, finance, marketing and sales, it became a proving ground for what’s possible when execution matches vision.
I founded FM Solutions to give founders and brand owners that same advantage. Sometimes you don’t need a full-time team, you need an experienced partner who can simplify the moving parts, create a pathway, and get your product shelf-ready.
That’s what I do.
