President and COO of Liquidity Services, Inc. Named a Supply & Demand Chain Executive 2008 Pro to Know
Since co-founding Liquidity Services, Inc. (LSI) in 1999, Mr. Mateus-Tique has been revolutionizing how large corporations and government agencies manage and dispose of surplus and end-of-life assets. Traditionally, most retailers, manufacturers, corporations and government agencies have focused on the procurement of new goods for initial use or re-sale and have largely ignored the disposal, liquidation and tracking of goods in the reverse supply chain such as retail customer returns, overstock product and end-of-life goods. Through the development of LSI's innovative technology solution, Mr. Mateus-Tique has helped drive the evolution of the reverse supply chain from the use manual, ad hoc processes to dispose of assets to the use of a comprehensive asset management and sales solution that leverages the potential of the Internet.
"Jaime is a forward thinker in how to further maximize the hidden value of the reverse supply chain and works with our sellers to ensure an efficient reverse supply chain solution that generates the highest net recovery possible," said Bill Angrick, Chairman and CEO of LSI. "LSI provides an innovative and efficient approach to the supply chain, and Jaime has consistently been the driving force towards our clients' success as well as LSI's."
"This year's Provider Pros to Know have shown themselves to be thought-leaders in their respective supply chain segments," said Andrew K. Reese, editor of Supply & Demand Chain Executive. "Their efforts in developing the tools and processes necessary for supply chain transformation, and in promoting new approaches to supply chain enablement, are helping raise Supply Chain's status within the enterprise and have earned them a place on this year's Provider Pros listing."
Mateus-Tique is a co-founder of Liquidity Services, Inc. who has served as President, Chief Operating Officer and Director of LSI since April 2000. The Pros to Know list is featured in the magazine's February/March 2008 issue and can be accessed online at www.SDCExec.com/2008Pros.
