John West is the Chief Supply Chain Officer at LuLaRoe, the largest social retailer in the United States. He’s responsible for all of the storage and distribution of product for one of the nation’s fastest growing fashion brands.

As a retired United States Army Captain, John demands 100 percent effort from his team to achieve the highest possible warehousing and distribution standards. His 1,700 person staff is located across the country in three strategically located sites, including LuLaRoe’s manufacturing center in Fontana, California, their West Coast distribution center in Corona, California, and their East Coast distribution center in Blythewood, South Carolina.
