Chief Strategy Officer

Dan Bell, Chief Strategy Officer, joined legacy Marken in 2003. Dan is a licensed US Customs Broker and a Certified Customs Specialist with over 26 years of experience in the life science logistics and temperature control field.

Dan is responsible for leading the Strategy, Marketing and Pricing teams at Marken, UPS Healthcare Precision Logistics, with a focus on finding new ways to innovate, optimize and solve our clients’ greatest challenges. He has served as a liaison between clients, customs and the alphabet soup of regulatory agencies, to ensure the maximum level of compliance with trade laws and regulations.

His knowledge and experience in this arena has led to the development of many import strategies that have significantly reduced turnaround times, optimized cost and ensured mission critical objectives have been met or exceeded. As regulatory scrutiny continues to focus on the temperature-controlled supply chain, Dan’s expertise with thermo regulating packaging solutions and temperature logging devices has been critical to meeting the requirements of the recently updated Good Distribution Practices for pharmaceutical transport and similar guidelines.
