Hill’s Pet Nutrition adds to senior team
 

Hill's Pet Nutrition has announced the appointment of Amalia Londono to Executive Vice President of End-to-End Supply Chain. 

 

Londono, an experienced supply chain professional with over 25 years of experience at CP, recently transitioned into this global leadership role. She succeeds José Borrell, who has been named CP’s Executive Vice President, End-to-End Supply Chain, Latin America. 

 

“I am energized by the opportunity to lead the Hill’s supply chain during such a transformative time,” said Londono. “My career has been defined by a passion for developing talented, diverse teams and building efficient networks. I look forward to leveraging digital innovation and sustainable practices to support our powerful mission of enriching the relationships between people and their pets.”

 

Londono will lead the transformation of Hill’s global supply chain ecosystem – which includes 12 manufacturing plants around the world and dozens of warehouses and distribution centers – into a digital, resilient and sustainable network. Under Londono’s leadership, the Hill’s supply chain will focus on leveraging state-of-the-art manufacturing locations with robust planning systems built around intelligence and synchronization to deliver uncompromising safety and quality along with superior customer experiences. 

 

“We are thrilled to have Amalia lead our global supply chain operations,” said Yvonne Hsu, President of Hill’s Pet Nutrition. “Her rich experience across domestic and international markets, combined with her pragmatic business leadership skills, will be vital as we transform our network to better serve pets and their families worldwide.”

 

Throughout her distinguished career, Londono has held diverse roles ranging from working on the factory floor to procuring raw materials and designing complex logistics networks. She began her journey with CP at a manufacturing plant in New Jersey.
