Naurin Muzaffar

Independent Supply Chain Advisor

CARE Impact Partners

Naurin Muzaffar works with CARE Impact Partners on supply chain resilience and responsible sourcing engagements. She brings a practitioner perspective that spans both sides of the compliance equation, advising suppliers on operational readiness while supporting brands on program design and implementation. Through her consultancy Innovatus, she works across manufacturing environments in Pakistan, Bangladesh, India, and Sri Lanka, and serves as an independent expert on the Cascale Technical Advisory Committee. Her work is grounded in the realities of factory-floor implementation, and she is a consistent voice for approaches that close the gap between brand intent and supplier experience.
