# Ananda Bhavani > Brand and Product Architect | 20+ Years Across Apparel, Home Goods, CPG and Foodservice | Global Sourcing and Product Development Location: San Francisco Bay Area, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/anandabhavani I build purpose-driven brands at the intersection of design, innovation, and operational strategy. With over 20 years of experience spanning apparel, consumer goods, food/CPG, industrial manufacturing, and e-commerce, I’ve led companies from concept to commercialization - owning everything from brand vision and product development to sourcing, manufacturing, pricing architecture, and go-to-market execution. As a Founder and CEO, I’ve directed global product innovation, managed cross-functional remote teams, negotiated directly with international suppliers, built national sales strategies, restructured pricing models, and led full brand and digital ecosystem redesigns. My background in design remains foundational, but today my work extends deeply into business architecture, systems optimization, AI integration, and strategic growth. I thrive in complex build environments where creative intuition and strategic execution live side by side. Core strengths include: Brand Strategy & Vision Development Executive Leadership & Cross-Functional Team Management Go-to-Market Strategy End-to-End Product Development Global Sourcing & Manufacturing Oversight Pricing Strategy & Margin Optimization Sales Strategy & Distributor Partnerships E-commerce Strategy & Digital Merchandising Shopify & E-commerce Platform Management Supply Chain Coordination Sustainable Product Innovation Trend Forecasting & Design Direction AI Workflow Integration & Process Automation Brand Storytelling & Creative Direction ## Work Experience ### Creative Brand Strategist @ TUSCAN LEVELING, INC.® Jan 2025 – Present ### Head of Design @ Juro Miru Jan 2025 – Present ### Chief Executive Officer @ Boldly Foods Jan 2022 – Jan 2025 | Sydney, New South Wales, Australia 100% Vegan Seafood.
