Shekar Natarajan is the Chief Supply Chain Officer for American Eagle Outfitters and has been with the company for quite a few years.

He has worked for several very large FMCG companies earlier in his career, including Coca-Cola, Pepsi, and AB InBev. He also made significant things within very large retailers such as Walmart and Target.
Now he's driving some extremely interesting projects within the American Eagle Outfitters supply chain, including the acquisition that they've made to Quiet Logistics and AirTerra.
