Sean A. Flanagan

Part of a GFS J&P Cup Competition winning team with over $3 billion in annual sales. I serve as the first point of contact to multiple Canadian chain corporate offices with units across six distribution centers. I am the direct contact for daily operational needs with our customers including promotion and limited time offer preparation, demand planning, new item and vendor setup, communicate weekly sales forecasts to the Divisions, Logistics, and Pricing teams, and a multitude of other tasks to ensure outstanding customer service and continuity of product to our customers!

I work closely with Chain Inventory Specialists and Inside Sales Reps to monitor stock levels and help find solutions or alternatives during low stock situations.

I also maintain order guides for thousands of items to ensure proper visibility to customer locations on our Gordon Ordering platform. Run sales velocity reporting on a monthly or as needed basis. And support a multitude of other projects or tasks, both time sensitive and longer term.
